  • Administer a Password Management solution and drive credential hygiene.

Awareness & response

  • Security-review new SaaS before adoption; own the approved-app list; hunt shadow IT.

  • Secure the collaboration stack: email, Slack, file sharing.

  • Partner with infrastructure security on centralized security monitoring: feed endpoint and identity signals into shared detection and response.

Requirements:

  • Hands-on experience running MDM and EDR at fleet scale.
