Assignment description

We are looking for a Junior Security Consultant to act as the first point of contact for security incidents, alerts, and insider risk cases.

In this role, you will focus on the initial intake, coordination, and routing of security and compliance-related events using ServiceNow, Microsoft Defender, and Microsoft Purview (including Insider Risk Management). You will ensure that incoming alerts and cases are properly captured, assessed at a high level, and directed to the appropriate teams for further investigation.

This role is ideal for someone looking to build experience in security operations, incident handling, and data protection without being directly responsible for deep technical investigations.

• Microsoft Purview (DLP, Insider Risk Management, compliance alerts)
• Ensure alerts and cases are properly documented and enriched with relevant context
• Track incident progress and ensure updates are maintained in ticketing systems
• Support coordination between security, IT, and business stakeholders
• Follow defined processes, SLAs, and escalation paths
• Assist in identifying recurring issues and improving intake and triage processes
• Skill requirements
• Bachelor’s degree in IT, Cybersecurity, or a related field (or equivalent experience)

Basic understanding of:

• IT security concepts (e.g., threats, vulnerabilities, incident response)
• Networking fundamentals (TCP/IP, DNS, firewalls)
• Familiarity with Microsoft Azure or cloud platforms
• Strong analytical and problem-solving skills
