    • Risk Management and Compliance:
      • Identify and assess risks, conduct vulnerability audits, and ensure compliance with government regulations, industry standards (e.g., NIST, DoD, FIPS), and customer requirements. This includes managing the RMF lifecycle for systems.
    • System Security Operations:
      • Oversee the day-to-day security operations of information systems, including managing security patching, antivirus updates, and media control, and ensuring proper security controls are implemented and followed.
    • Accreditation and Authorization:
      • Manage and maintain security authorizations, including the acquisition and renewal of Authorization to Operate (ATO).
    • Incident Response and Training:
      • Lead crisis units during security incidents and conduct security briefings, education, and training for employees to raise awareness of cybersecurity challenges and prevention measures.
    • Technical Oversight:
      • Provide technical and procedural advice on security matters, review security tool reports, and support security engineering projects.
    • Leadership and Coordination:
      • Lead and manage teams of Information System Security Officers (ISSOs), coordinate with various government agencies and stakeholders, and act as the primary cybersecurity authority for their assigned systems or programs.
