Role Summary The Cyber Threat Intelligence & Exposure Management Analyst is responsible for identifying, analyzing, and communicating cyber threats and organizational exposures that present risk to the enterprise. This role combines cyber threat intelligence, attack surface visibility, digital risk monitoring, vulnerability intelligence, and exposure management to deliver actionable insights that improve security posture and reduce business risk.

The analyst continuously monitors the threat landscape, tracks adversary activity, evaluates internal and external exposures, and provides threat-informed prioritization of vulnerabilities, misconfigurations, internet-facing assets, and emerging cyber risks. By correlating intelligence with organizational asset context and business criticality, this role enables Security Operations, Vulnerability Management, Incident Response, Engineering, and Risk teams to focus remediation efforts on the risks that matter most.

Success in this role requires a strong understanding of adversary tradecraft, attack surface management, cyber risk assessment, threat intelligence methodologies, and the ability to translate technical findings into actionable recommendations for both technical and executive audiences. Job Responsibilities Monitor emerging cyber threats, adversary activity, malware campaigns, vulnerability exploitation trends, and relevant geopolitical developments.

Track threat actors and analyze their capabilities, infrastructure, targeting patterns, and tactics, techniques, and procedures (TTPs). Conduct intelligence-driven investigations using internal telemetry, threat intelligence platforms, OSINT, and digital footprint analysis. Discover, inventory, and assess internet-facing assets, cloud resources, domains, certificates, and external attack surfaces that may increase organizational risk.

Identify, validate, and prioritize security exposures including vulnerabilities, misconfigurations, exposed services, shadow IT, credential exposures, and third-party risks. Correlate threat intelligence with vulnerability, asset, business criticality, and exposure data to provide risk-based remediation recommendations. Analyze exploitability, adversary activity, KEV intelligence, and emerging attack trends to prioritize remediation efforts.

Develop threat-informed exposure assessments and risk reports for security, engineering, and business stakeholders. Lead IOC collection, enrichment, validation, and lifecycle management activities. Maintain intelligence records, exposure findings, indicators, and threat artifacts within intelligence and exposure management platforms. Support continuous attack surface monitoring and identify newly discovered assets, services, and externally exposed technologies.

Produce tactical, operational, and strategic intelligence products on threats, exposures, and cyber risks. Deliver intelligence and exposure management briefings to leadership, security teams, and business stakeholders. Support incident response activities through adversary analysis, attribution support, infrastructure investigations, and threat hunting. Partner with Security Operations, Vulnerability Management, Cloud Security, Product Security, and Risk Management teams to drive threat-informed risk reduction.

Develop metrics and reporting that measure exposure reduction, remediation effectiveness, vulnerability prioritization, and attack surface risk. Identify intelligence gaps, emerging risks, and opportunities to improve organizational resilience and defensive capabilities.
