  • Monitor deliverables and timelines against security and compliance objectives
  • Conduct gap analyses on legislative/regulatory/policy changes and their operational impact
  • Perform data analysis and reporting to support compliance monitoring and risk tracking
  • Support security/standards reviews, risk assessments, and mitigation planning
  • Contribute to System Security Plans, Assessment Reports, and Authorization packages
  • Support Disaster Recovery and Business Continuity Planning, including business impact assessments and tabletop exercises
  • Coordinate vulnerability scans and support mitigation planning
  • Provide informal leadership and mentorship to fellow analysts on security frameworks and governance processes

  • Experience participating in system or process changes with a focus on data protection, access controls, and secure implementation
  • Knowledge of Agile SDLC with an emphasis on integrating security/compliance into requirements, testing, and release
  • Ability to assess common vulnerabilities (XSS, CSRF, SQL Injection, authentication weaknesses)
  • Proficiency with tools supporting security documentation, compliance tracking, and workflow management (e.g., Azure DevOps, GRC platforms)
  • Experience contributing to Disaster Recovery Plan development, documentation, and testing, including RTOs/RPOs

Preferred Qualifications:
  • Bachelor's degree in information security, cybersecurity, information systems, public administration, or related field (or equivalent experience)
