Description

Quantech has immediate openings for Cybersecurity technical experts who can support and/or fill either an Information Systems Security Officer (ISSO) or Information Systems Security Engineer (ISSE) position supporting the Cloud One program office located at Hanscom AFB, MA.

Cloud One is the AF evolution to standardized platforms and application support services providing secure cloud environments, engineered environments, and cyber security solutions.

Cloud One provides AF target environments and cloud migration services for 2,700+ AF mission applications. Currently the portfolio has 50+ mission systems spread between the Cloud One Azure and Amazon environments.

Along with the migration of mission systems there is the continual look at improving the processes, adding common services and automating as much as possible.

• Conducting risk and vulnerability assessments of planned and installed information systems to identify vulnerabilities, risks, and protection needs.
• Promoting awareness of security issues among management and ensuring sound security principles are reflected in organizations' visions and goals.
• Conducting systems security evaluations, audits, and reviews.
• Recommending systems security contingency plans and disaster recovery procedures.
• Recommending and implementing programs to ensure that systems, network, and data users are aware of, understand, and adhere to systems security policies and procedures.
• Participating in network and systems design to ensure implementation of appropriate systems security policies.
• Facilitating the gathering, analysis, and preservation of evidence used in the prosecution of computer crimes.
• Assessing security events to determine impact and implementing corrective actions.
• Ensuring the rigorous application of information security/cybersecurity policies, principles, and practices in the delivery of all IT services.
• Perform as or support the Information System Security Engineer (ISSE) in an Information Assurance Workforce System Architecture and Engineering (IASAE) position as outlined in AFI 33-200, AFI and AFMAN for assigned systems.
