• Knowledge of advanced threat detection tools, emerging security technologies, and the ability to analyze large datasets to identify subtle anomalies.
• Demonstrated involvement in threat hunting, cyber threat intelligence, malware analysis, or security research through personal or professional projects.
• Active participation in cybersecurity groups, events, or certifications such as Security+, SSCP, GSEC, or CySA+ to stay current with industry standards and best practices.
