Department Summary:
The CI Assessments, Analytics, and Resiliency department is focused on defending and strengthening our nation s critical infrastructure. We support a full range of defensive operations and activities including threat-informed risk assessment and mitigation, adversary hunting, and detection engineering with a special focus on operational technology (OT). It is the expertise in OT and knowledge of threats and security controls and technique that differentiates the department s work from traditional information technology cybersecurity.
The department also brings this specialized knowledge to other domains of security and safety engineering including resilience engineering and infrastructure susceptibility assessments. The department is continuously developing, refining, and tailoring capabilities to meet the needs and special requirements and constraints when working with operational technologies in critical infrastructure. The department moves the state of the art in securing CI by sharing our thought leadership both within and outside of MITRE via TEMs, conferences, presentations, and publications. This is how the CI Assessments, Analytics, and Resiliency department helps create a world with safe and resilient cyber infrastructure.
MITRE is a not-for-profit focused on impact, not revenue. Our mission-driven teams work across MITRE s R&D centers in the federal civilian and national security space, partner with industry to solve hard problems, and collaborate with the public to build open-source software.
Job Description:
MITRE s Cyber Infrastructure Protection Innovation Center is seeking a technical Capability Area Lead (CAL) for Critical Infrastructure Resiliency and Safety. The CAL will be a member of the department leadership team responsible for generating work, advising on technical capabilities, and mentoring in the area of Critical Infrastructure Resiliency and Safety. They will directly shape and impact sponsor relationships, staff, and the department as a whole. The CAL will be a member of the CI Assessments, Analytics, and Resiliency department. In addition to their focus on building Critical Infrastructure Resiliency and Safety capabilities, they will maintain expertise in Operational Technology, Control Systems, Mobile, or 5G cybersecurity.
This CAL will focus on work that ensures critical infrastructure operations can be done safely, securely, and reliably even in contested environments, through assessments, analysis, and engineering of applications, devices, communications, and supporting infrastructure. Critical Infrastructure owners vary greatly in their understanding of system design and associated risks. Using passive and active data collection methods, this CAL will understand how to perform system validation (e.g., identifying assets, data ingress/egress points, etc). and using available threat intelligence which will facilitate a systematic risk approach to remediating any identified gaps. Using formalized and repeatable assessments, cross-cutting gaps can be identified and prioritized for remediation, research, and innovation. The CAL will maintain an understanding of the current threat landscape and acquire/develop the training and tooling necessary to stay current on adversary TTPs.
