As a Junior Security Analyst, you will learn how to identify basic signs of compromise and turn investigative questions into basic queries. We will walk you through every step of the investigation, teaching you how to form a hypothesis, follow evidence, and think through an attack systematically.

Security Analyst III

As a Security Analyst III, you will take alerts or indicators of compromise at any stage of the kill chain and map out full compromises. With minimal direction, you will lead complex investigations, recognize patterns quickly, and adapt when things get complicated.

Security Analyst IV

As a Security Analyst III, you will thread the needle in complex and subtle investigations. With little to no guidance, you will handle cases like the senior-most member of a SOC team, defining how novel threats are approached and setting the investigative standard for everyone around you.
