Perform incident response activities: evidence collection, scoping, containment, eradication, recovery, and post-incident reporting. Conduct endpoint and host-based analysis (process trees, command-line execution, registry changes, scheduled tasks, persistence mechanisms, network connections). Correlate telemetry across endpoint, identity, network, and cloud sources to confirm malicious activity and reduce false positives. Execute response actions (e.g., isolate host, kill/quarantine process, block indicators, remove persistence, enforce policy changes) in accordance with playbooks and approvals. Develop and maintain detection and response playbooks/runbooks for common attack scenarios (phishing, suspicious PowerShell, credential dumping, suspicious service creation, etc.). Create and tune alerting rules, exclusions, and detections to improve signal quality and reduce noise while maintaining security coverage. Document investigations thoroughly: timelines, IOCs, impacted assets/users, actions taken, and recommendations for prevention. Support threat hunting activities using EDR/XDR telemetry and threat intelligence to identify suspicious patterns and proactively reduce risk. Participate in on-call rotation and shift-based SOC coverage as required. Research security enhancements and make recommendations for management. Stay up to date on information technology trends and security standards. Train, mentor, and guide teammates through direct comms and by hosting knowledge transfer calls.
