Associate Detection and Response Analyst (Associate SOC Analyst)

You know that NOP sleds don’t go down snowbanks, and that IR isn’t just on the electromagnetic spectrum. In fact, you’ve owned a few boxes with Metasploit, maybe even tinkered with exploit code. You were really excited the first time you got a reverse shell. Meterpreter might be your payload of choice, maybe even Beacon. You have a lab where you’re spending less time in a Command shell, and more time in PowerShell. You love to solve problems, you’re curious to a fault, and obsessed with learning.

Or maybe you’ve focused just on defense. You remind anyone that will listen to you to update and patch. You understand TCP/IP, know how to analyze pcap files and write detections to defend networks (labs count!). You know ways malware can survive a reboot and how to gather evidence that can prove a file previously executed. You’re constantly reading articles and asking yourself, “how would I detect this?”

Do you dig the breadth and diversity that is the threat landscape? Are you motivated by curiosity to pursue investigative leads and even hunt for attacker activity? Have you gotten a handle on the basics of security analysis and are itching to wield your powers in live environments?
