  • Developing detection rules, response workflows and security policies
  • Supporting threat hunting and improving endpoint visibility
  • Working across Windows server, desktop and cloud workloads
  • Providing technical expertise throughout implementation and operational phases

Requirements

  • Enterprise deployment of CrowdStrike Falcon
  • Falcon sensor rollout and lifecycle management
  • Policy creation and tuning
  • Host groups, prevention policies and detection management
  • Incident response and threat hunting using CrowdStrike
  • Falcon Complete, Falcon Insight or Falcon Prevent
  • Integration with Microsoft Sentinel, Splunk, QRadar or similar SIEM platforms
  • Active Directory integration
  • Enterprise-scale security engineering

  • SentinelOne
  • Rapid7
