Senior Incident Response Investigator

Location - Remote UK plus travel to client sites

Salary - £80,000 - £100,000 + bonus

You'll sit between deep technical investigation and boardroom communication: finding out how attackers got in, then explaining what it means for the business in language senior leaders can act on.

What you'll do

  • Lead incident response investigations for client organisations and deliver high-quality reports with clear findings and guidance
  • Maintain target utilisation on chargeable client projects
  • Produce technical content (research, blogs, thought leadership) to a publishable standard
  • Support Incident Readiness work, including tabletop exercises, client training and playbook creation, when not on live investigations
  • Mentor junior team members and advise on current industry trends
  • Support delivery and growth of the wider practice

 

About you

Essential

  • Chartered Cyber Security Professional (ChCSP) status
  • Experience investigating targeted attacks across large enterprise networks
  • Strong knowledge of client-server infrastructure, security architecture, logging and alerting across multiple operating systems
  • Network forensics, including packet-level analysis
  • File-system analysis and extraction of common disk-based indicators of compromise
  • Windows, Linux and/or macOS internals, with knowledge of key system artefacts for each
  • Memory analysis
  • Ability to explain the NIST incident response phases and work with the MITRE ATT&CK Enterprise framework
  • Understanding of threat actor motivations and methods, and how systems are exploited
  • Excellent communication, from technical practitioners to executive boards

 

Desirable

  • Malware analysis
  • Scripting in Python, Ruby, PowerShell or Bash
  • Experience with common cloud technologies

 

If you're DV cleared and ready to lead investigations that matter, apply today or message Rob Wall at FR Secure for a confidential conversation.
