Senior Incident Response Remediation Consultant

Since 2004, Mandiant has been a trusted partner to security-conscious organizations.

Do you want to be part of a team of security consultants investigating, remediating and recovering from computer crimes and breaches that make the headlines – and many more that don’t?

FireEye Mandiant Security Transformation Services helps organizations build an effective security operations program that minimizes organizational risk and reduces the impact of security breaches. With a targeted focus in hybrid cloud architectures, our consultants work from initial assessment and configuration review of security controls, to detailed technical recommendations that can be practically implemented to harden hybrid cloud environments, enhance visibility and detection, and improve processes to reduce the risk of compromise.
