Information Security Analyst

Job Description The Information Security Analyst is a technical role within the Information Security (InfoSec) group of Information Technology Services (ITS), responsible for defending the University's data assets through policy controls, security operations, incident response, and AI‑assisted tooling. As a primary network defender, the analyst works at the intersection of threat detection, vulnerability management, and forensic investigation within a Security Operations Center (SOC) and requires hands‑on experience across several domains: SOC operations—including alert triage, log analysis, and network traffic interpretation using tools such as Splunk, Kibana, or Microsoft Sentinel; Python 3 scripting for automation and detection support; firewall management for ruleset maintenance and network security enforcement; Microsoft Entra ID administration including identity architecture and PowerShell scripting; Linux system administration across mixed‑OS environments; and digital forensics at a first‑responder level, including breach assessment, evidence preservation, and containment. This role is responsible for developing and overseeing student SOC employees. The SOC functions as both a live security operation and a learning environment, requiring the analyst to serve as senior practitioner and mentor. #J-18808-Ljbffr ARMA International
