The analyst also drives process improvements, develops new risk attribution methods, and refines governance for vendor access and connectivity.
In addition, role will be part of the continuous monitoring team focusing on security risks introduced by third-party suppliers, SaaS platforms, and publicly exposed assets. This role will develop threat models, detection strategies, and monitoring capabilities to identify and reduce external and supply-chain related threats impacting the organization.
