Application Security Expertise: Lead efforts in identifying, prioritizing, and mitigating security risks and vulnerabilities in both new and existing applications. Provide subject-matter expertise on application security best practices, secure coding, and threat modeling.
Azure Cloud Security: Utilize Azure Cloud services to ensure secure infrastructure deployment and configuration. Implement best practices for securing Azure environments, leveraging services like Azure Key Vault, Azure Security Center, and more.
Static and Dynamic Application Security Testing: Lead efforts around Static Application Security Testing (SAST) and Dynamic Application Security Testing (DAST) to identify and remediate vulnerabilities in both the codebase and runtime environments.
Secrets Management: Implement, manage, and continuously improve secrets management solutions (e.g. Azure Key Vault) to protect sensitive information across multiple environments.
Software Composition Analysis (SCA): Oversee software composition analysis to identify and manage vulnerabilities in third-party libraries and dependencies, ensuring compliance with security policies.
Automation and Infrastructure as Code: Develop and maintain infrastructure as code (IaC) practices using tools like Terraform to automate the provisioning and management of secure cloud environments.
Security Policies & Compliance: Ensure compliance with industry security standards (e.g., OWASP, NIST, CIS) and regulatory requirements. Create and enforce security policies related to application security and cloud infrastructure.
Collaboration & Mentorship: Collaborate with cross-functional teams to ensure security is prioritized across development, operations, and product teams. Mentor junior engineers on DevSecOps best practices and tools.
