In this key leadership role, you will be responsible for developing, implementing, and maintaining our incident response strategy, ensuring that the organization is prepared to effectively respond to security breaches and other incidents. You will work closely with various departments, including IT, legal, and compliance, to coordinate incident response activities and ensure that appropriate measures are in place to mitigate risks and protect sensitive information.
Your primary duties will include overseeing the detection, analysis, and containment of security incidents, as well as conducting root cause analyses and post-incident reviews. You will lead training and awareness programs to ensure that all employees are familiar with incident reporting procedures and understand their roles in the incident response process. Additionally, you will collaborate with external stakeholders, such as law enforcement and regulatory agencies, to ensure compliance with applicable laws and regulations.
