- Audit Active Directory and Azure AD/Entra ID account permissions, process access requests using least-privilege models, and review MFA compliance.
- Review daily firewall traffic logs, secure email gateway flags, and web filter reports to identify phishing attempts and rogue connections.
- Maintain event log records, track patch verification steps, and help gather technical evidence for annual SOC 2 audits.
Requirements
- 3+ years in an Information Security Analyst, SOC Analyst, or IT Security role.
- Hands-on experience using SIEM tools, vulnerability scanners, and EDR consoles.
- Strong knowledge of TCP/IP, DNS, SSL/TLS, and Windows/Linux operating system security settings.
