Security Analyst – World Trade Center Health Program (WTCHP TPA)

Overview:
 GDIT is seeking a Security Analyst to support day‑to‑day security operations for the World Trade Center Health Program TPA. This role strengthens protection of PHI/PII, ensures compliance with NIST 800‑53/FISMA Moderate and HIPAA, and supports continuous monitoring across cloud and on‑premise environments. You will play a key role in threat detection, incident response, vulnerability management, and security governance.

What You’ll Do:

• Monitor and triage security alerts across SIEM (Splunk), EDR (CrowdStrike), DLP tools, and cloud telemetry.
 • Lead or support incident response activities: investigation, containment, eradication, and lessons learned.
 • Execute vulnerability management processes including scanning, validation, prioritization, remediation tracking, and reporting.
 • Contribute to POA&Ms, SSP updates, audit responses, and control evidence collection.
 • Support identity and access governance, least‑privilege reviews, and privileged access monitoring.
 • Build or refine detection content, playbooks, and automation for common WTCHP security scenarios.
 • Partner with engineering, infrastructure, and DevOps teams to embed security into change management processes.
 • Maintain runbooks, metrics, and dashboards; report on control health and operational risk.

Required Qualifications:

• 3–5 years in security operations or blue‑team roles within regulated healthcare or federal environments
 • Hands‑on experience with SIEM (Splunk), EDR (CrowdStrike or similar), vulnerability scanners (Tenable/Nessus), and DLP tools
 • Familiarity with NIST 800‑53, HIPAA, RMF, log management, and cloud environments (AWS/Azure)

CompTIA Security+ (required or must be obtained within 6 months)
 • Strong analytical, documentation, and communication skills
 • Ability to participate in on‑call rotation
 • Ability to obtain and maintain a Public Trust (Moderate Risk) background investigation

Preferred Qualifications:

Additional certifications such as Splunk User/Power User, AWS/Azure security, CySA+, or CEH
 • Experience with ServiceNow/Jira, SPL/KQL queries, Python/PowerShell scripting, or DLP tuning
 • Exposure to FedRAMP control environments, zero‑trust principles, and PHI governance
