You will work as a threat hunter to identify and disrupt attempts by APT actors to attack and compromise operational infrastructure, analyze large amounts of network data and make recommendations based on your analysis. This unique opportunity allows you to experience both sides of CNE activity, expand both your offensive and defensive skills and help you think like the attacker to improve operational success. You must like solving complex challenges, developing threat detection processes based on analytic findings and researching the latest cyber security solutions in a rapidly changing environment. The blue team Network Exploitation Analysts are responsible for identifying network intrusions using commercial IDS and host-based logs, network traffic flows and other unique data sets. They inform Network Security Engineers of possible intrusions, identify areas to harden network defenses and inform network defenders from different groups of their results. They can also assist the red team Penetration Testers to better hone their operational security, evade detection and find new ways to penetrate and pivot through target networks. ## Related Videos - [Dev & Test in the Cloud?
