Advising software development scrum teams on secure coding practices, cybersecurity practices for containerized/orchestrated environments and CI/CD pipelines, security-focused engineering trade studies, and other security best practices.
Conducting security assessments of mission software applications to include code reviews, vulnerability assessments, application security testing, while contributing to the overall security posture of the system and software architecture
Assist in the development and implementation of security tools (i.e., Trellix) and automation processes; to include Static and Dynamic Code Analysis, Software Dependency Scanning, Compliance and Vulnerability Scanning (i.e., ACAS), Auditing & Event Monitoring Solutions (i.e., Splunk)
