Introduction:

As a Red Team Specialist with a focus on advanced persistent threat (APT) research, you will be a crucial member of a dedicated team responsible for bolstering our solution's resilience against sophisticated cyberattacks. Your primary role will involve simulating complex threat actor tactics and techniques, conducting in-depth research on emerging APT groups, and executing realistic red team exercises to proactively identify vulnerabilities and enhance our security posture.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Design, deploy, and maintain a realistic cyber range environment using AWS or Azure cloud platforms to emulate complex network scenarios.
  • Develop and execute advanced cyberattack scenarios based on real-world APT tactics, techniques, and procedures (TTPs) to uncover security gaps and evaluate the effectiveness of our solutions.
  • Conduct thorough testing and validation of our security solutions against simulated APT attacks, ensuring robust defense mechanisms are in place.
  • Collaborate closely with other solution teams to assess the impact of simulated attacks and contribute to the refinement of defensive strategies and security controls.
  • Document findings, including detailed technical reports and actionable recommendations, to drive improvements in our threat detection and response capabilities.
  • Participate in post-exercise debriefings to analyze attack simulations and contribute to continuous improvement initiatives for our red teaming methodologies and security solutions.
  • Stay abreast of the latest cybersecurity trends, emerging APT groups, and evolving attack methodologies, incorporating this knowledge into our red teaming practices

Required Skills and Qualifications:

  • Strong knowledge of Windows administration and Active Directory management.
  • Familiarity with cloud integration and hybrid environments.
  • Proven experience in red team operations and familiarity with tools and techniques used in offensive cybersecurity.
  • In-depth understanding of advanced persistent threats (APTs), their methodologies, and the ability to emulate their behavior.
  • Strong ability to develop and simulate complex cyber-attack scenarios and manage red team exercises.
  • Excellent analytical and problem-solving skills, with the ability to think like both an attacker and a defender.
  • Strong communication and collaboration skills, capable of working effectively with cross-functional teams.

 

Preferred Qualifications:

  • Certifications such as OSCP, CEH, or other relevant cybersecurity certifications.
  • Experience with scripting and programming languages such as Python, PowerShell, or Bash.
  • Experience conducting research and analysis of APT groups, their tools, and infrastructure.
  • Experience with multi-cloud or hybrid environments.
