Role Overview
The Cybersecurity Analyst is a hands-on operational role within the Cyber Operations team, responsible for frontline security monitoring, incident response support, exposure management validation, and compliance evidence. Working under the direction of the Director, Cyber Operations and senior engineers, the Analyst is the execution layer of KLDiscovery's security program monitoring what matters, responding when it counts, and keeping the team's operational processes running reliably. This is a remote opportunity with a clear growth path toward Sr. Cybersecurity Analyst.
Key Responsibilities

Security Monitoring & Alert Triage

• Serve as first-line eyes on the environment validating and escalating CrowdStrike MDR-confirmed findings, reviewing MDR outputs, assessing context, and ensuring accurate internal escalation to the Engineers and Director

• Monitor security alerts from tools operating outside MDR scope
• Triage alerts for AI tool misuse, anomalous AI-related activity, and other emerging threat patterns as directed by the Security Manager

• Flag SIEM and identity health monitoring gaps, anomalies, and coverage issues to the engineering team — you are the first to notice when something looks wrong or missing

Incident Response Support

• Serve as first-line support during security incidents like gathering evidence, documenting timelines, executing containment steps, and supporting the Security Manager through the full incident lifecycle

• Conduct initial technical investigations to identify root cause of intrusions, anomalies, or policy violations

• Maintain incident records, post-incident documentation, and lessons-learned notes to a standard that supports compliance evidence and future response improvement

• Participate in on-call rotation to ensure coverage outside core business hours for escalated MDR findings or active incidents

Vulnerability & Exposure Management Support

• Monitor the CrowdStrike Falcon Exposure Management dashboard tracking open findings, flagging severity changes, and keeping remediation status records current to support the engineer who owns the program

• Follow up on patch deployment failures identifying affected systems and coordinating with IT on remediation timelines as directed by the engineering team

• Support third-party penetration test logistics, internal scheduling communication, evidence gathering, and remediation ticket tracking under the direction of the engineer coordinating the engagement

• Maintain accurate and current exposure tracking records so the engineering team always has clean data for prioritization decisions and compliance reporting

Compliance & Audit Support

• Gather and maintain technical evidence for compliance frameworks and internal audits

• Support internal audit and pre-assessment readiness reviews, organizing evidence packages and ensuring documentation is audit-ready at all times, not reconstructed at assessment time

• Assist the GRC team with technical control evidence, gap tracking, and remediation documentation

• Maintain documentation that supports annual security compliance attestations relevant to assigned business units

Qualifications

Experience

• 2+ years of hands-on experience in a security operation, IT, or closely related technical role

• Practical experience with security monitoring, alert triage, or incident response in a corporate environment

• Familiarity with MDR platforms (CrowdStrike Falcon Complete or equivalent) is a strong plus

• Working knowledge of common security tools or ticketing systems(Remedy or equivalent)

Technical Knowledge

• Understanding of core security domains sufficient to execute assigned tasks independently: access management, encryption, network security, vulnerability management, and incident response

• Basic familiarity with cloud security concepts (AWS, Azure, or GCP) including IAM, logging, and posture monitoring

• Foundational understanding of AppSec concepts is a meaningful differentiator: SAST/DAST tooling, secure SDLC, and pipeline security

• Experience with AI security considerations (AI tool access governance, prompt injection awareness) is a plus

General Abilities

• A strong sense of ownership, when you take on a task, it gets done; you follow through without being chased, flag blockers early, and close the loop reliably

• Alert and attentive, you notice things others miss, take monitoring seriously, and understand that complacency in security operations has real consequences

• Detail-oriented with high standards for accuracy and documentation, evidence, and escalation decisions require precision and you take that seriously

• A strong communicator, able to summarize security findings clearly, escalate appropriately without overclaiming, and write incident notes that are useful to the people who read them

• A collaborative team member, you work well within a team structure, take direction from senior staff, and contribute without needing to be the loudest voice in the room

• Growth-oriented, you actively invest in your own development, stay current on the threat landscape, and approach each incident as a learning opportunity

• Discreet and trusted, you handle sensitive incident data, client information, and security findings with appropriate confidentiality and professionalism

Education & Certifications

• Formal education in Information Security, Computer Science, IT, or a related field is a plus but not required — we care more about what you can do than where you studied

• Relevant certifications such as GSEC or CISSP are valued but not a prerequisite. If you don't have one yet, we'll support you in getting there
