About the role
The Challenge The Adobe Cyber Defense Center is looking for a Security Incident Responder to play an important role in our cybersecurity incident response team. Cyber threats are evolving, and perimeter security and automated protection are not always enough, so when compromises occur, the IR team steps in to investigate and respond. You will work closely with senior incident responders and analysts to detect, analyze, and mitigate security incidents to ensure the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of Adobe's systems. Additionally, rather than sit back and wait for attackers to strike, we partner closely with the Threat Hunting Team to proactively search through large datasets to seek out malicious or suspicious activities. Enjoy a challenge? We invite you to help take Adobe’s Incident Response program to the next level! What You Will Do Investigate and assess the severity of security incidents, classifying them according to established processes. Develop and present comprehensive and accurate reports, training, and presentations for both technical and non-technical audiences. Work closely with the Threat Hunting Team to conduct proactive and iterative hunts through cloud and enterprise networks, endpoints, or datasets to detect malicious, suspicious, or risky activities that have evaded detection by existing tools. Conduct log analysis and digital forensics in support of incident response investigations. Maintain detailed records of incident response activities, including timelines, actions taken, and evidence collected. Assist in implementing mitigation strategies and countermeasures to contain and eradicate security threats. Stay up to date with the latest security threats and trends, sharing knowledge with
the team.
