The role also includes leveraging AI-driven cybersecurity solutions and Large Language Models (LLMs) to enhance information gathering, vulnerability analysis, attack surface monitoring, and the identification of indicators of compromise associated with evolving threat actors and attack campaigns.

Activities will include:

• Execution of periodic Vulnerability Assessments across both internal and external perimeters using enterprise-grade security platforms and automated assessment tools.
• Identification, validation, prioritization, and reporting of vulnerabilities to asset owners, with continuous tracking of remediation activities through the organization's Vulnerability Management platform.
• Execution of Web Application Penetration Tests (WAPT), infrastructure penetration tests, and Red Teaming exercises based on internally defined threat scenarios and intelligence-driven attack simulations.
• Collection and correlation of information from OSINT, CLOSINT, Threat Intelligence feeds, and AI-assisted research platforms to identify newly disclosed vulnerabilities, emerging threats, and zero-day exposures.
• Security impact assessment of new vulnerabilities and threat campaigns affecting the organization, including risk evaluation, remediation prioritization, and stakeholder communication.
• Utilization of AI and Machine Learning-based tools to support vulnerability triage, threat hunting, attack pattern analysis, anomaly detection, and proactive identification of emerging cyber risks.

MAIN TASKS

• Perform Red Teaming activities in collaboration with the GOSP CSIRT team, based on agreed cyber threat scenarios, to validate detection, response, and prevention capabilities, identify security gaps, and define remediation actions.

• Leverage Generative AI and AI-powered cybersecurity solutions to accelerate threat intelligence analysis, vulnerability research, attack path identification, security assessments, and the production of technical reports and remediation recommendations.
• Support proactive threat hunting and attack surface monitoring activities by combining traditional security methodologies with AI-enhanced analytics and automation capabilities.
• Contribute to the continuous improvement of security testing methodologies, adversary emulation techniques, and cybersecurity processes aligned with evolving threat landscapes.
