Vulnerability Management & Reporting • Lead the enterprise vulnerability scanning initiative including managing all scheduled and ad hoc server, workstation, database, web application and network infrastructure scans. • Investigate and analyze zero-day and other emerging vulnerabilities reported from various sources to understand their potential impact on the client network and what changes/updates need to be implemented to reduce the risk of exploitation. Then work with applicable teams to implement the changes. • Create monthly metrics reports providing senior management an understanding of the vulnerability/threat landscape. • Maintain SOC servers and software via regular health checks to ensure they are operating at peak performance. Apply upgrades/patches and remediate any issues as they arise. • Analyze reported false positives to verify if they truly are false positives and work with systems engineers to remediate and patch any that are not.
