    • Submit security authorization packages to the Government with development recommendations.
    • Assess changes to IS and its operational environment that could affect system authorization.
    • Ensure proper procedures for clearing, purging, declassifying, and releasing IS memory, media, and output.
    • Assist the Government in compliance inspections and respond to security incidents related to cybersecurity.
    • Evaluate changes within the IS boundary that impact authorization.
    • Ensure that IS requirements are considered throughout all phases of the system lifecycle.

    Requirements:

    • 7 to 9 years of relevant experience.
    • Bachelor's Degree in a related field or equivalent experience (4 years).
    • A minimum of 4 years of experience in SAP and Collateral IS Security and regulatory implementation.
