Collaborate in a team-based environment to test and evaluate systems against a set of security requirements to evaluate potential risk. Gain an understanding of and develop potential testing methodologies based on vendor-provided system documentation. Utilize functional and working or industry knowledge to review hardware description language to identify potential threat vectors. Assess hardware and software-based cross domain systems to ensure security compliance against strict DoD requirements. Conduct analysis and testing to identify vulnerabilities and potential threat vectors in assessing various cross-domain systems, identify exploits, and develop attack methodologies. Apply specific functional and working or industry knowledge. Develop or contribute to solutions to a variety of problems of moderate scope and complexity when needed. Create reports based upon the results of hands-on testing and brief stakeholders on any findings identified. Conduct research in the areas of hardware-based filtering technologies to grow understanding across the department and support business needs.
