About the Role​
Most days for Associate Analysts will consist of reviewing alert data to identify evil activity in customer environments. In these roles you will be empowered to steer investigations. Investigations include everything from evidence acquisition and analysis to figure out how the intrusion began to identify any malicious or unexpected activity related to the event. Based on this investigation you will be responsible for writing an incident report which includes your technical analysts, documented findings and remediation recommendations for customers. Your colleague, a Customer Advisor, will be responsible for direct communication with the customer. You will have fellow analysts who will be ready to help you if you encounter a problem or have a question, including Mid, Senior and Lead Analysts. In addition to live response, in the event of a security incident that rises to the level of a Remote Incident Response engagement, Associate Analysts may be tasked with performing investigation tasks related to the investigation. In this circumstance you will focus on helping a team track threat actor actions across an environment by examining forensic artifacts.
