Cybersecurity Vulnerability Management Analyst IIIFull-Time / Benefit EligibleRemote Opportunity - Hybrid PreferredUnder direction of the Manager, Cybersecurity Operations, the Cybersecurity Vulnerability Management Analyst is responsible for performing the tasks that support enterprise vulnerability identification, assessment, prioritization, and remediation tracking across the organization's technology environment, including on-premises infrastructure, cloud workloads, medical/IoT devices, and third-party connected systems.
Operates and maintains the organization's vulnerability scanning and assessment platform(s) (e.g., Rapid7 InsightVM), executes scheduled and ad hoc scanning activity, validates and triages findings, and applies risk-based prioritization using industry-standard scoring methodologies (e.g., CVSS, EPSS) in conjunction with asset criticality and business/clinical impact.
Coordinates with Infrastructure, Application Owners, Clinical Engineering, and third-party vendors to drive timely remediation of identified vulnerabilities and missing patches within established Service Level Agreements (SLAs), and documents risk exceptions, compensating controls, and Plans of Action and Milestones (POA&Ms) for vulnerabilities that cannot be remediated on standard timelines.
Monitors emerging Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVEs), vendor security advisories, and threat intelligence to identify organizational exposure ahead of active exploitation, and produces recurring vulnerability management metrics, dashboards, and reporting to support Cybersecurity Governance, Risk, and Compliance (GRC) oversight and leadership decision-making.
