Threat Hunting & Threat Modeling Analyst (Bangalore Rural)

Threat Hunting & Threat Modeling Analyst (L2) Role Summary The L2 Threat Hunting & Threat Modeling Analyst is responsible for executing standard and custom threat hunts, supporting threat intelligence integration for hunting, and conducting application/project threat modeling assessments using automated tooling (e.g., ThreatModeler). This role handles activities escalated from L1/SOC teams, performs deeper analysis, produces technical reports, and coordinates with L3 SMEs for complex hunt hypotheses, systemic findings, and design-level risk decisions. InScope Tools & Skills - Threat Hunting (TIP-driven): Execute standard and custom threat analysis and hunts; produce executive/detailed hunt reports - Threat Modeling (Automated): ThreatModeler (or equivalent automated threat modeling tool) for security assessments of defined projects/apps - Red Teaming (Support): Support advanced adversary simulation exercises (planning support, evidence handling, reporting support - Tuskira (Knowledge): Familiarity/working knowledge (e.g., exposure management / security posture / control gap insights) Key Responsibilities (L2) 1) Threat Hunting Execution (Standard + Custom) - Execute standard threat analysis and hunts and document results with evidence and explicit conclusions. - Execute custom threat analysis and hunts based on operational triggers, threat intelligence inputs, or stakeholder requests. - Support integration/consumption of threat intelligence inputs to improve hunt relevance and prioritization. 2) Threat Intelligence Operationalization for Hunts - Recommend and refine threat intelligence feed usage that supports hunting objectives and improves signal quality. - Provide operational guidance (what to look for) derived from intelligence for quicker triage and validation. 3) Threat Modeling Assessments (ThreatModeler) - Perform threat modeling assessments for projects/applications using ThreatModeler (or similar automated tooling) within defined scope - Identify trust boundaries, attack paths, and control gaps; document risks and recommended mitigations in a consistent format. - Maintain assessment artifacts and ensure findings are tracked to closure through appropriate stakeholders. 4) Red Teaming Support (L2) - Support red team exercises by helping with coordination, scoping inputs, rules-of-engagement adherence, and evidence hygiene for reporting - Assist in translating red team observations into actionable defensive improvements and hunt hypotheses 5) Reporting & Documentation - Produce detailed hunt reports and contribute to executive summaries as needed, ensuring outputs are actionable and evidence-backed. - Document repeatable hunt playbooks and threat model templates to improve operational consistency Required Skills & Experience - 57+ years in Threat hunting/detection engineering support roles - Hands-on capability executing threat hunts and producing evidence-based reports - Hands-on exposure to ThreatModeler (or equivalent) for application/project threat modeling assessments - Understanding of adversary tactics and translating them into hunt hypotheses and mitigation recommendations Role & responsibilities .
