Information Systems Security Officer

Job Number: R0239642

Cyber threats are everywhere, and the constantly evolving nature of these threats can make understanding them seem overwhelming to Department of War(DoW) agencies and related components. In all of this "cyber noise," how can these organizations understand their risks and how to mitigate them? The answer is an Information Systems Security Officer (ISSO) like you who will break down complex threats into manageable plans of action.

As an ISSO on our team, you will use your experience to work with government stakeholders to identify cyber risks, understand applicable policies, and develop a mitigation plan. You'll work closely with the Information System Security Manager to monitor the information systems and their environment, including developing and updating the authorization documentation and implementing configuration management across authorization boundaries.

You will work with your client to conduct risk assessments, considering data confidentiality, integrity, and availability. You will be involved in organized Incident Response actions such as guiding and reporting back to key stakeholders. You will support the team in meeting authorization timelines and coordinating communications with external entities in support of that objective.
