The Role:
Advanced Practices’ mission is to know more about adversaries than anyone else and to make the knowledge actionable for Mandiant. Our threat analysts work at the intersection of incident response, security operations, detection engineering, and cyber threat intelligence.
You are an independent critical thinker skilled in using data and information derived from multiple disciplines to solve analytical problems. Your past experience qualifies you as an intrusion decisionmaker capable of guiding multiple teams’ efforts in a unified event.
You will track all impactful adversaries by collecting, modeling, and analyzing data originating from thousands of investigations conducted by Mandiant, third party telemetry, as well as novel sources and methods.
You are encouraged to contribute back to the security community by sharing your expertise through whitepapers, tool releases, and conference talks.
About Advanced Practices:
Advanced Practices was formed in 2015 to exclusively focus on the most difficult threats facing our clients and our company independent of product or business lines. We work with every other Mandiant team to track, correlate, attribute, detect, and collect on our adversaries using advanced analysis and deep research. Advanced Practices codifies and makes actionable the knowledge from thousands of annual event responses, all available organic telemetry, and other novel sources and methods. As an extension of this work, Advanced Practices acts as key practitioners driving Mandiant’s larger development for technology, process, and thought leadership.
Illumination. Advanced Practices illuminates under-reported or uncorrelated intrusion activity to expose and amplify complex adversary activity. We search for the nearly imperceptible traces of attackers wherever we can find them and seek to surface their activity for action.
Front-line Visibility. Our team of 40+ talented security research and threat analysis professionals bring centuries of experience investigating intrusions, analyzing malware, and dissecting digital artifacts to deliver front-line innovation for Mandiant/.
Threat Discovery. Our goal is simple: to know the most about adversaries and make this knowledge actionable. Advanced Practices enables early discovery and analysis of adversary operations and their tradecraft so that our customers are protected.
It’s How that Works. Our team studies the world’s most impactful intrusions from the Mandiant frontlines to understand how apex attackers operate. The focus on technical evidence and how our adversaries operate powers the who our adversaries are and contributes to more how’s to keep the cycle in motion.
Surfacing the Unseen. We look for unique features and common adversary methods across all intrusions and malware so we can develop resilient monitoring, detection, and discovery of attacker activity. We set proactive traps and develop threat signals to capture real-time and historic adversary activity from important, evasive, and emerging threats. Additionally, we examine historical data for new patterns based on recent finds.
