The Attack Surface Visibility and Analysis (ASVA) team is responsible for data mining efforts to identify and understand the firm's Attack Surface. The team utilizes enterprise systems of record, systems of origin and other available data stores to deliver a comprehensive, reliable and timely view of the Bank's attack surface and potential for vulnerability exploitation, with the goal of enabling answers to the following three questions:

• Do we have it?

ASVA includes experienced teammates who utilize technology tools (for example, Hue (Hive and Impala), Power BI, SQL Server, , MS-Reporting Services (SSRS), MS-Integration Services (SSIS), Cloudera, .NET and Python) to create queries, reporting and visualizations for Global Information Security decisionmakers and operational teams. This managerial role is accountable for setting strategic direction for ASVA, ensuring delivery of timely, high quality and actionable analysis, and coordinating with other GIS and technology teams on key projects and deliverables.

  • Collaboration with stakeholders to create repeatable and defensible processes to identify asset-specific risks and mitigating factors within the environment
  • Improved automation of research activities and greater integration of ASVA output into enterprise vulnerability management processes
  • Leverage expertise in data and asset analysis to develop proactive (rather than reactive) pathways for escalation of hidden gaps in controls or processes
  • Establish an evaluation and feedback dialog with stakeholders and partners to proactively address lessons learned

  • Strong analytical skills/problem solving/conceptual thinking
  • Detail oriented, but comfortable deciding when enough is enough - need to avoid paralysis by analysis
  • 10+ years of Information Technology experience, including infrastructure management and reporting. Experience in information security is preferred but not required.
