Ntiva
• Configure, maintain, optimize, and troubleshoot core security platforms to ensure they are functioning effectively and aligned with security policies. • Process escalated or complex requests from the Security Analyst team regarding security tools, including global/difficult exclusions, user access management, and changes requiring engineer-level permissions. • Perform regular reviews and audits of security tool configurations (e.g., quarterly settings reviews) to ensure compliance, identify misconfigurations, and resolve configuration-related alerts. • Analyze systems and applications to investigate identified vulnerabilities, understand their potential impact, and determine root causes. • Work with clients to address vulnerabilities in their environments, ensuring that clients are well protected. • Create, test, and maintain scripts (using languages like PowerShell, Bash, etc.) to automate tasks related to vulnerability management (e.g., mass deployment, reporting, remediation) and security alert handling (e.g., improving log collection). • Work closely with fellow Security Analysts and Security Engineers, sharing information, participating in team discussions, and contributing to a collaborative security environment. • Work tickets that have been escalated to you, and potentially coach Security Analyst I and Security Analyst II on next steps. • Communicate professionally and clearly with end-users or clients to gather details about potential security issues, explain security procedures, or provide guidance during incident resolution. • Interact effectively with other teams (e.g., Reactive Support, Client Strategy, NOC) to coordinate security responses and share necessary information. • Maintain accurate and detailed records of investigations, actions taken, communications, and resolutions within ConnectWise. • Offer timely and helpful support related to security inquiries, upholding a professional and customer-service-oriented approach in all interactions. • Assist with ticket management—primarily by monitoring and responding to alert-related tickets in the absence of engineering tasks.
