- Configure and maintain authenticated vulnerability scans, discovery scans, Tenable agents, scanners, and related scan infrastructure.
- Monitor scanner and agent health, scan completion, credential failures, plugin currency, performance, and platform capacity; troubleshoot issues through resolution.
- Develop and maintain dynamic asset tags, scan targeting, network ranges, exclusions, and ownership mappings to support accurate segmentation and reporting.
- Reconcile Tenable asset inventory with authoritative sources such as Active Directory, SCCM, ServiceNow CMDB, and network inventories; investigate coverage gaps and duplicate or stale records.
Vulnerability Identification, Analysis, and Prioritization- Review vulnerability scan results for accuracy, severity, exploitability, asset criticality, exposure, and business impact.
- Identify false positives, accepted risks, compensating controls, recurring findings, and vulnerabilities requiring urgent escalation.
- Prioritize remediation using CVSS, Tenable Vulnerability Priority Rating and Asset Criticality Rating, known-exploited vulnerability information, threat intelligence, and internal risk criteria.
- Perform targeted analysis of operating systems, applications, databases, network devices, cloud assets, and other in-scope technologies.
- Track vulnerability aging, remediation service levels, overdue findings, recurring issues, and risk trends across the enterprise.
Remediation Coordination and Validation- Assign and communicate actionable vulnerability findings to infrastructure, application, cloud, database, network, and endpoint owners.
- Coordinate remediation plans, target dates, dependencies, and escalation of overdue or high-risk vulnerabilities.
- Partner with patch management and system owners to confirm that corrective actions address identified vulnerabilities without creating unacceptable operational risk.
- Perform rescans or other validation to confirm remediation effectiveness and document closure evidence.
- Maintain documented exceptions and risk acceptances with defined scope, business justification, compensating controls, approvals, and expiration dates.
Governance, Reporting, and Continuous Improvement- Produce recurring vulnerability dashboards and reports that clearly communicate coverage, critical findings, aging, remediation performance, exceptions, and emerging risk to management and technical stakeholders.
- Maintain vulnerability management procedures, scan standards, asset coverage documentation, operating runbooks, ownership records, and evidence repositories.
- Support audits, regulatory reviews, risk assessments, and control testing with complete and traceable evidence of scanning, analysis, remediation, validation, and exception handling.
- Monitor adherence to vulnerability remediation service levels and escalate material risks in accordance with governance and issue-management requirements.
- Recommend improvements to Tenable configuration, scan coverage, automation, reporting, integrations, and vulnerability management processes.
QUALIFICATIONSEducation- Bachelor's degree in information technology, Computer Science, Information Systems, Cybersecurity, or a related field preferred.
- Relevant certifications are a plus, particularly Tenable certifications, Security+, CySA+, CISSP, or comparable vulnerability management, cybersecurity, or systems administration credentials.
Experience:- Minimum 5 years of experience in vulnerability management, cybersecurity operations, security engineering, infrastructure security, or a related role.
- At least 3 years of hands-on experience with vulnerability management tools with focus on Tenable.io or Tenable Vulnerability Management, including scan configuration, agent and scanner administration, asset tagging, dashboards, reporting, and troubleshooting.
- Experience conducting authenticated and unauthenticated vulnerability scans across Windows, Linux, network, database, application, cloud, and endpoint environments.
- Experience analyzing vulnerabilities, prioritizing risk, coordinating remediation, validating closure, and managing exceptions or risk acceptances.
- Experience integrating or reconciling vulnerability data with technologies such as ServiceNow, CMDB, Active Directory, SCCM, Intune, APIs, or other enterprise asset sources.
- Experience producing vulnerability metrics and executive reporting in a formal IT governance, audit, regulatory, or compliance environment; banking or financial-services experience preferred.
Skills/Ability:- Advanced working knowledge of Tenable.io or Tenable Vulnerability Management, including scan policies, credentials, agents, scanners, asset tags, access groups, dashboards, reports, plugins, and troubleshooting.
- Strong knowledge of Tenable is important; familiarity with other vulnerability management, security scanning, and remediation tools is also valued.
- Strong understanding of vulnerability management lifecycle practices, CVSS, Tenable Vulnerability Priority Rating, Asset Criticality Rating, known-exploited vulnerabilities, threat intelligence, and risk-based prioritization.
- Knowledge of authenticated scanning, network discovery, agent-based assessment, credential management, scan tuning, and methods for improving asset and vulnerability coverage.
- Knowledge of configuring and using Tenable compliance scans to assess security control implementation and measure cybersecurity maturity against the CIS Critical Security Controls framework and applicable CIS Benchmarks.
- Ability to analyze findings, identify likely false positives, determine remediation options, communicate technical risk, and validate corrective action.
- Knowledge of Windows, Linux, network devices, databases, cloud platforms, enterprise applications, and endpoint management technologies.
- Ability to reconcile and normalize asset data across Tenable, ServiceNow CMDB, Active Directory, SCCM, Intune, and other inventory sources.
- Strong data-analysis and reporting skills, including development of operational dashboards, vulnerability aging metrics, service-level reporting, risk trends, and executive summaries.
- Familiarity with ServiceNow Vulnerability Response or similar remediation workflow and issue-tracking platforms is preferred.
- Understanding of change management, exception management, risk acceptance, audit evidence, and regulated-environment control requirements.
