The Challenge:

Are you looking for an opportunity to see big picture and make a profound impact on the security of Defense critical systems? This is your chance to identify and implement ways to harden systems and reduce their attack surface, supporting our Defense clients in the analysis, engineering, planning, and strategy development related to a threat, analysis, and architecture. You will play a lead role in transforming Cybersecurity in Defense systems. Join our team and help to turn requirements into accomplishments that drive change.

You’ll lead a team that will perform Proof of Concept (POC) tests of potential cyber vulnerabilities in a lab environment through the exercising of cyber effects. The purpose of lab testing is to simulate or approximate operation of a weapon system or subcomponent to demonstrate that cyber effects work and produce expected results. Reverse engineers will dissect the system to implement cyber effects that will achieve the desired mission effects. Your team will test the developed cyber effects on the emulated lab to validate the exploited vulnerability, and to prove that the developed cyber effect demonstrates the adversarial expected mission effect. The final test of the verified vulnerabilities can also be used to validate the cyber and mission effects against an organization’s Tactics, Techniques, and Procedures (TTPs). 

Join us. The world can’t wait!
