  3. Escalate confirmed incidents to L2/L3 analysts with detailed documentation.

  2. Monitor dark web/IoC sources for emerging threats relevant to the organization.

Reporting & Documentation:

  1. Document incidents in ticketing systems (e.g., Jira, ServiceNow) with timelines, actions taken, and evidence.
  2. Generate daily shift reports highlighting threat trends, false positives, and system health.

Tool Maintenance & Optimization:

  1. Tune SIEM rules to reduce false positives and improve detection accuracy.
  2. Validate security tool configurations (e.g., firewall policies, EDR rules).
Requirements

Education:

  • Diploma/Bachelor’s in Cybersecurity, IT, Computer Science, or related field.

Experience & Skills:

  • More than one year in security monitoring or more than 2 years in IT support/networking with security exposure.

Hands-on experience with:

  2. Security tools (EDR, firewalls, IDS/IPS, email security)
  3. OS security (Windows/Linux log analysis)

Understanding of:

  1. Networking (TCP/IP, DNS, VPN, HTTP/S)
  2. Common attack vectors (phishing, malware, brute force)
  3. Cloud security fundamentals (AWS/Azure/GCP)

Technical Certifications (Preferred):

  1. CompTIA Security+, CySA+, CEH, or equivalent entry-level security certs
  2. Vendor certifications (e.g., Splunk Core User, Microsoft SC-200)

Shift Requirements:

  1. Willingness to work 12-hour rotational shifts (day/night), including weekends/public holidays.
  2. Ability to maintain focus during high-pressure overnight shifts.
