Signals Analyst - Dublin, Ireland - Microsoft
Description
Overview
Security represents the most critical priorities for our customers in a world awash in digital threats, regulatory scrutiny, and estate complexity.
Microsoft Security aspires to make the world a safer place for all. We want to reshape security and empower every user, customer, and developer with a security cloud that protects them with end to end, simplified solutions.
The Microsoft Security organization accelerates Microsoft's mission and bold ambitions to ensure that our company and industry is securing digital technology platforms, devices, and clouds in our customers' heterogeneous environments, as well as ensuring the security of our own internal estate.
Our culture is centered on embracing a growth mindset, a theme of inspiring excellence, and encouraging teams and leaders to bring their best each day. In doing so, we create life-changing innovations that impact billions of lives around the world.
The Microsoft Threat Intelligence Center (MSTIC) tracks nation state and criminal actors to protect Microsoft and Microsoft's customers. The actors we track are often highly technical, and maintain good operational security. Tracking actors like this requires persistence and ingenuity and is done by combining intelligence analysts, reverse engineers, developers and data scientists.
Some of the successful investigations that MSTIC has performed include discovering and disrupting supply chain attacks from North Korean actors, identifying attacks from Iranian actors against universities and research organisations, and monitoring new techniques deployed by Russian actors.
MSTIC also co-operate with the Digital Crimes Unit (DCU) to prevent cybercrime, particularly ransomware. Our team in Dublin is expanding and we're looking for individuals interested or experienced in threat intelligence, with good development experience, to help us scale up our nation state and cybercriminal actor tracking.
Your role would be to track actors, perform investigations and automate that hunting work through python development. (If you are familiar with using the Storm language and Azure Data Explorer, all the better).
Qualifications
Ability to meet Microsoft, customer and/or government security screening requirements are required for this role. These requirements include, but are not limited to the following specialized security screenings: Microsoft Cloud Background Check:
This position will be required to pass the Microsoft background and Microsoft Cloud background check upon hire/transfer and every two years thereafter.
