- Evaluate the security of AI-enabled technologies and third-party vendors.
- Partner with IT and business teams to reduce risk and improve security.
Qualifications- 3+ years of cybersecurity or information security experience.
- Knowledge of network security, identity management, endpoint protection, and incident response.
- Experience with security frameworks and tools such as OWASP, MITRE ATT&CK, SIEM, and EDR.
- Scripting or automation experience (Python, PowerShell, or similar).
- Understanding of healthcare security requirements and AI-related security risks.
- Ability to communicate effectively with technical and non-technical stakeholders.
Preferred- Healthcare or hospital IT experience.
