• Determine vectors that introduce threat and potential mitigation strategies.
• Learn about systemic security issues and how to address them.
• Process threat reporting from internal and external sources.
• Provide discrete threat data based on intelligence requirements or customer requests.
• Identify security defects or vulnerabilities and deficiencies in security guidance.
• Contribute code to technical implementation and automation of solutions to address security issues, such as signature detection, malware, threat analysis, or reverse engineering.
• Use results from research and experimentation to support architecture or product direction.
• Identify areas of dependency and overlap with other teams or team members.
• Provide constructive input so the work is integrated and timely.
• Communicate the status of deliverables and dependencies to meet schedule.
• Engage in measures to protect tools, techniques, information, and results of security practices.
