Job Description:
Who we are:
At Applied Network Solutions (ANS), we bring together some of the
most curious minds in networking and cybersecurity. ANS was founded
to disrupt the status quo. For over 20 years, our team provides
expertise in network, system engineering and both offensive and
defensive cybersecurity operations.
What we do:
Our vision is for a future in which talent and customers alike come
to ANS because of our reputation for delivering technical
excellence, solving our nation's toughest challenges and our
ability to exceed expectations.
Why ANS:
At ANS we value the integrity of your work. We are looking for the
right person to plan, analyze, design, develop, test, secure,
integrate, implement, operate, and maintain the custom solutions
that ANS delivers. Together, let's ensure today is safe and
tomorrow is smarter.
Requirements
The Problem:
Cloud, IoT devices, remote work, BYOD, ICS/SCADA systems, legacy
systems, containerization, virtualization, and serverless functions
are just a few examples of how our traditional network paradigms
are being challenged and expanded to meet the requirements of our
partners at home and abroad. With these new technologies, our
adversaries are finding new techniques to gain access into our
networks to deceive, degrade, deny, disrupt, and destroy our
systems and the critical functions those systems provide. As a
Cyber Security Engineer, we work on the leading edge to secure our
systems through vulnerability assessments and to hunt for the
presence of our adversaries through network traffic and host
analysis. To assist us in these efforts we use security information
and event management (SIEM) systems utilizing emerging technologies
and the latest advancements in software and hardware to meet the
challenges of hunting the advance persistent threats from nation
state actors.
The ANSwer:
The cyber landscape is constantly advancing and being a
self-starter that can learn and adapt is critical to success in
this field. Maintaining a willingness to grow and learn the new
technologies, tactics, techniques, and procedures keeps us in the
forefront of the fight against our adversaries.
The lines between software development and cyber security are
becoming blurry as DevSecOps practices become industry standards.
Having a background in scripting and programming allows for more
opportunities within these emerging cross-functional
environments.
Our operators have a functional understanding of networking,
operating systems, and cyber vulnerability assessments. Within
those disciplines, we specialize in a specific area within those
fields to become the SME our customers rely on.
Requirements:
Our Cyber Security Engineers are generally required to maintain at
least two certifications at a minimum. A DoD 8570 IAT Level three
certification (usually CompTIA's Advanced Security Practitioner
(CASP+ CE) or Certified Information Systems Security Professional
(CISSP)), and a role specialization certification such as Cisco
Routing & Switching CCNA for network traffic detection specialist,
a Linux/Windows certification for host analysis specialist, or
Certified Ethical Hacker (CEH) for vulnerability assessors.
Additional specific certifications may be required on a
role-by-role basis and most importantly, an active TS/SCI
Clearance.
Benefits:
ANS offers excellent compensation along with a generous benefits
package to include:
Applied Network Solutions, Inc. is an Equal Opportunity Employer.
All qualified applicants will receive consideration for employment
without regard to race, color, religion, sex, pregnancy, sexual
orientation, gender identity, national origin, age or protected
