  • Strong troubleshooting and documentation skills.
  • Security certifications such as Security+, CEH, or CySA+ are preferred but not required.
  • Exposure to scripting (Python, PowerShell, Bash) for automation tasks.
  • Experience participating in tabletop exercises or incident simulations.
  • Awareness of emerging cybersecurity threats and attack techniques.

A bit more about what you will be doing:

You'll play a key part in strengthening our security posture by contributing to the development and enforcement of cybersecurity policies and procedures. You'll work closely with our IT and DevOps teams to embed security best practices into systems and software from the ground up.

Your day-to-day will involve assisting in threat hunting, risk assessments, and vulnerability management including running scans, analyzing findings, and supporting remediation plans. You'll actively monitor and respond to security alerts using tools like SIEM, IDS/IPS, and endpoint protection platforms. You'll also be involved in incident response efforts, from investigation and containment to resolution.

In addition, you'll help implement and maintain security controls across systems, networks, and cloud environments, support patch management cycles, and conduct regular audits of system configurations, access controls, and user permissions.

Quantum-Enhanced AI in Cyber Security: Guarding the Digital Frontier

The cyber security landscape has evolved dramatically over the past decade. Long gone are the days when businesses primarily worried about simplistic phishing or basic website defacements. Today’s threats include nation-state attacks, sophisticated ransomware, AI-generated phishing campaigns, and a wide array of stealthy intrusion methods. Organisations must defend vast digital ecosystems that include cloud infrastructure, IoT devices, and critical operational technology—any of which can become high-value targets for malicious actors. Amid these escalating challenges, a new technological wave is emerging: quantum computing. Although still in its infancy, quantum computing promises capabilities that could surpass even the most advanced classical supercomputers for specific tasks. Simultaneously, in the world of Artificial Intelligence (AI)—where data volumes and model complexity are exploding—quantum’s parallelism could significantly boost analysis, training, and decision-making. What unfolds when quantum computing and AI converge in the realm of cyber security? On one hand, quantum technologies could introduce stronger encryption and faster threat detection. On the other, adversaries armed with quantum power might break today’s cryptographic protocols or develop more potent attacks at unimaginable speeds. This article explores the phenomenon of quantum-enhanced AI for cyber security: the possibilities it unlocks, the challenges it poses, and the reasons it could reshape both defensive and offensive operations in the digital world.
