MANDATORY TS SCI SECURITY CLEARANCE REQUIRED THIS POSITION IS FOR IMMEDIATE FILL
Assess the cybersecurity posture of a USMC defense program, ensuring the program is evolving with the best cybersecurity practices, prioritizing cyber threats based on factual cyber analysis.
Analyze foreign capabilities to detect, disrupt, and deny USMC emissions and signals throughout the cyber kill chain, to include, but not limited to emissions from targeting, communications, and intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance (ISR) assets, reversible and non-reversible attacks.
Identify, monitor, and assess advancements in emerging and commercial technologies that could be employed by state and non-state actors to detect, disrupt, and deny USMC acquisition programs' network infrastructure.
Identify significant risk characteristics of the environment such as classification of network, baseline activity, architecture, operating system, services, connectivity and bandwidth.
Identify the limits of the network to be collected against.
REQUIREMENTSEstablish limits of the supporting or connected networks that may need to be collected against.
Evaluate existing databases and identify intelligence gaps.
Use open source to gather Publicly Available Information (PAI).
Explore the physical battlespace; how could the environment affect tactical operations.
Define the battlespace effects.
Analyze the battlespace environment for information, services and networks, such as confidentiality, integrity, availability; and protect, detect, respond, restore and conduct reviews.
Analyze other characteristics of the battlespace such as security, auditing procedures, and backup systems. Evaluate the adversary on physical location of all assets, architecture and automation skills, security and policies, baseline activity, peculiarities and vulnerabilities, capabilities, and conclusions that address:
Rules of Engagement (ROE) for Information Assurance (IA), Computer Network Defense (CND) and Computer Network Attack (CNA)
Determine adversary's Courses of Action (COA).
Identify the adversary's likely objectives and desired end state.
Identify the full set of COA's available to the adversary, at a minimum the most likely and most dangerous should be developed.
Develop COA's based on enemy perception of friendly information architecture (reverse cyber IPB).
Evaluate and prioritize each adversary COA.
Continue to refine COA's as time and new information allow.
Evaluate foreign Computer Network Defense (CND) and Computer Network Attack (CNA) capabilities, limitations, and vulnerabilities.
Assess potential vulnerabilities of USMC tactical systems to CNA to include systems related to targeting, ISR, and navigation assets.
QUALIFICATIONSConduct all-source analysis to evaluate foreign military systems and technologies.
Conduct research, create intelligence products, create intelligence estimate assessments, and conduct intelligence briefings on request based on MCIA's Program of Analysis (POA) and customer-driven requests for information (RFIs).
Collect, analyze, interpret, evaluate and research using tools, techniques, methodology and software.
Produce and deliver written intelligence assessments and briefings to support consumers at the tactical, operational, and strategic level as assigned. Written products will meet Intelligence Community Standards (e.g., ICD 203, 206, 208) and MCIA standards and adhere to MCIA production and review processes.
Maintain situational awareness of and analyze the assigned portfolio.
Conduct research to determine current and future foreign capabilities.
Follow technology transfer and its military impact and ability of recipient countries to assimilate transferred technology.
