Job Level
About the role
- Lead the response to DLP and data security incidents, including investigation, containment, remediation, and root cause analysis for suspected data exfiltration or improper data handling.
- Own the deployment, configuration, and continuous tuning of DLP controls across endpoints, network egress, SaaS applications, and cloud storage to protect PHI, PII, PCI, and other sensitive data.
- Develop and maintain DLP policies, rules, and classifications that balance security, usability, and regulatory/client requirements.
- Build and refine automated response playbooks and workflows that enrich, triage, and respond to DLP alerts, reducing manual effort and mean time to respond.
- Perform proactive hunting for anomalous data movement, including unusual destinations, channels, or volumes, using DLP telemetry, EDR, SIEM, and identity signals.
- Partner with Security Engineering, IT, Legal, Privacy, Compliance, and business stakeholders to design and enforce secure data-handling patterns and exception processes.
- Contribute to broader incident response activities where data exposure or regulatory impact is a concern, including evidence handling and stakeholder communication.
- Define and track key DLP metrics (coverage, detection quality, MTTD/MTTR, false positive rate) and communicate progress to security leadership and cross-functional partners.
Requirements
- Minimum 5+ years of hands-on experience in security operations, incident response, or security engineering roles, with a strong emphasis on data protection and DLP.
- Direct, hands-on experience deploying, tuning, and operating DLP tools (endpoint, network, SaaS, and/or cloud) in a production environment.
- Experience implementing and operating Cloud Access Security Broker (CASB) or similar SaaS security controls
- Deep experience integrating DLP signals into SIEM/SOAR workflows (e.g., CrowdStrike, Splunk, Sentinel)
- Advanced scripting/automation skills (e.g., Python, PowerShell, KQL/SQL) used to enrich, tune, and report on DLP/IR telemetry at scale.
- Proven experience with Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR) platforms (e.g., CrowdStrike, SentinelOne) and using them alongside DLP to investigate and contain data-focused incidents.
- Strong experience with cloud data protection in AWS, including identifying and remediating misconfigurations, and leveraging native security services (e.g., GuardDuty, Security Hub) and CSPM tooling.
- Experience designing and maintaining data classification and policy frameworks for PHI, PII, PCI, and other sensitive data types.
