Description

Key Responsibilities:

Lead the planning, creation, and management of security architecture deliverables, including but not limited to requirements, solution designs, patterns, building blocks, target architectures, policies, standards, and guidance for all applicable platforms and environments to influence CCS, Enterprise Technology, and line of business decision making.
Acts as thought leader in new technology innovation, incubation, introduction and implementation critical to the CCS roadmap and Client’s success. Build roadmap for acquiring, integrating, and implementing high-value technology and processes. Oversee efforts (e.g. proof of concepts) to measure and prove new technology value.
Lead development of system security context and preliminary system security concept of operations and define baseline system security requirements in accordance with applicable regulations and standards.
Create and maintain system security context and preliminary system security concept of operations and define baseline system security requirements in accordance with applicable regulations and standards.
Ensure that all acquired or developed security systems and security architectures integrate with enterprise security architecture.
Establish strong relationships with key technology stakeholders and create convergence by demonstrating credibility, empathy and expertise on business and technical issues. Facilitate, communicate, collaborate, and persuade others in the definition, adoption and implementation of a coherent architecture.
Evaluate existing or emerging technologies to consider factors such as cost, security, compatibility and usability and ensure security product lifecycles are managed proactively.
Demonstrate comprehensive experience and skill in Information Security (InfoSec) and cyber security technology and practices necessary to negotiate and persuade technology direction on security principals and tenets such as confidentiality, integrity, availability, authentication and non-repudiation.
Perform security reviews, identify gaps in security architecture and develop security risk management plans.
