About the Role
At Check Point, what you do matters. Every day, we protect over 100,000 organizations worldwide from increasingly sophisticated cyber and AI-driven threats, securing their AI transformation. Our prevention-first approach safeguards hybrid networks, cloud environments, digital workspaces, and AI systems, stopping attacks before they happen. You'll help customers across industries operate with confidence in a rapidly changing digital world, working alongside smart, curious people who take ownership, challenge assumptions, and solve complex problems.
Responsibilities
•Lead and perform end-to-end Incident Response and Digital Forensics investigations, from initial scoping through containment, forensic investigation, remediation, and final reporting.
•Perform forensic analysis of compromised Windows and other enterprise systems to determine initial access, root cause, attacker activity, persistence, lateral movement, scope, and impact.
•Analyze endpoint, operating system, authentication, network, and security telemetry to reconstruct attacker activity and identify indicators of compromise.
•Lead response efforts during complex, large-scale, and global security incidents.
•Perform enterprise-wide compromise assessments to identify affected systems and evidence of malicious activity.
•Develop clear containment, eradication, recovery, and remediation recommendations.
•Produce detailed, high-quality incident investigation reports documenting attack vectors, attacker TTPs, findings, impact, and recommended actions.
•Clearly communicate technical findings and incident status to customer technical teams and senior stakeholders.
•Develop and improve incident response plans, procedures, and playbooks.
•Design realistic cyberattack scenarios and facilitate tabletop exercises.
•Build and maintain forensic and malware-analysis lab environments.
•Collaborate with global incident responders, forensic investigators, security researchers, and customer teams.
Requirements
•5+ years of cybersecurity experience.
•Minimum 2 years of hands-on DFIR/Incident Response experience investigating confirmed system or enterprise compromises.
•Demonstrated experience conducting forensic investigations to determine: initial access and root cause, persistence mechanisms, credential compromise, privilege escalation, lateral movement, attacker TTPs, scope and impact of compromise.
•Hands-on experience analyzing Windows forensic artifacts, endpoint telemetry, event logs, authentication activity, and network evidence.
•Experience responding to complex incidents such as ransomware, identity compromise, malware infections, and enterprise intrusions.
•Ability to independently scope and drive an investigation and develop defensible remediation recommendations.
•Strong experience producing customer-facing incident reports and presenting technical findings clearly.
•Experience developing incident response plans and playbooks.
•Strong analytical, troubleshooting, and communication skills.
•Ability to work effectively during high-severity incidents requiring coordination across multiple teams and geographies.
