System and Network Assessments Conduct assessments of systems and networks to identify deviations from acceptable configurations, enclave policies, or local policies. Utilize passive evaluations (e.g., compliance audits) and active evaluations (e.g., vulnerability assessments) to uncover potential risks. Support formal Security Test and Evaluation (ST&E) processes required by government accrediting authorities. Participate in pre-test preparations, execute security certification tests, analyze results, and prepare required reports. Coordinate with multidisciplinary teams to ensure security requirements are met and provide input on additional safeguards. Participate in and document process activities to maintain compliance with relevant security policies and standards. Establish and enforce strict program control processes to mitigate identified risks. Assist in obtaining system certification and accreditation by supporting process analysis, coordination, and documentation requirements.
