Cyber Security Analyst

This candidate will be responsible for reviewing/regularly analyzing the security compliance of applications in production to ensure ongoing adherence to security policies and standards. The ideal candidate will have a strong understanding about security testing solutions (DAST…) and related results / reports (how to understand and act on it).

The candidate will also be responsible for Addressing vulnerabilities by driving and monitoring the remediation process for identified security vulnerabilities and non-compliance within applications to ensure timely resolution and by creating/updating the security procedures and guidelines to improve and standardize security practices. The candidate will collaborate with internal teams to promote good practices in application security and ensure the security and integrity of our applications.             

Main Tasks:

• Vulnerability Identification
  • Supervising the execution of regular scans (using tools like Qualys, Bitsight...) to detect vulnerabilities in software, hardware, and configurations.
  • Monitoring threat intelligence feeds and security advisories (e.g., CVE databases) for emerging vulnerabilities                                        
• Risk Assessment & Prioritization
  • Evaluating vulnerabilities based on severity (e.g., scores), exploitability, and potential impact
  • Ensure that prioritization is followed and understanding the impacts when it is not.                          
• Remediation Coordination:
  • Collaborating with IT, development, and security teams (Pentest, Application Security, Regional teams) to follow up on ticket stock to patch or mitigate vulnerabilities.
