Cyber Strategic Planning and Policy Development Specialist

The Opportunity: 

When our country’s cybersecurity is on the line, simply reacting is not enough—we need a plan. And when that plan needs to protect critical missions, systems, and infrastructure, we need strategic policy development. That’s why we need you, a strategic planning, security, and policy specialist with the skills to analyze the policies that determine our cyber resilience.

As you guide your client through understanding acceptable risk and availability, you’ll work on the development of a strategic cyber roadmap. You’ll work with the client to help them operate securely as they navigate an evolving threat environment.
