Main DescriptionWe are looking for a motivated SOC Analyst who can strengthen our Security Operations Center (SOC) with their talents and passion for cybersecurity. Are you interested in working for an organization that highly values and prioritizes Cyber Security? Do you want to learn and excel in an environment that gives you room for initiative and at the same time be part of a solid and established Blue Team? Then this might be something for you.
Your primary job is to participate in the day-to-day SOC activities. You will triage incidents generated by our SIEM, analyze them, escalate to or be part of the cyber crisis team when necessary and assess, contain and remediate risks as fast as possible. In addition, there are opportunities to participate in initiatives such as threat intelligence, incident response simulations, threat hunting or even vulnerability management. We use state of the art technology, and the detection capabilities are frequently challenged by our Red & Purple Team.
In addition, you can work on the following:
- Implementation of new detections, based on current cyber threats that we identified from our threat intelligence
- Setting up automation of incident handling or enrichment, possibly by using AI to make the process more efficient
- Response on cyber incidents that need to be mitigated in collaboration with the security teams and other IT Teams
RequirementsCuriosity, persistency, and a touch of suspiciousness. That's how we can best describe you as a SOC Analyst, where you really embrace the assume breach mindset. There are several skills that will help you to thrive in our environment, where the most important mission is to safeguard the assets and information of our clients through a constantly changing world every day. Those skills are:
- You have previous experience as a SOC Analyst and working with a SIEM, allowing you to quickly integrate into the team.
- You are not hesitant to share your opinion, contributing to open discussions and collaborative decision-making.
- You have experience - or a strong motivation to develop expertise - in building detection rules, crafting threat hunting queries, and designing incident enrichment solutions.
- You have experience working with Threat Intelligence, with a strong ability to translate threat analysis into actionable insights and operational security measures.
- You can apply knowledge of threat actor behavior and TTPs to proactively identify, assess, and mitigate cyber risks.
- Strong critical mindset and willingness and ability to collaborate with colleagues across different (non-security) teams.
Your talentsWe work with a wide range of clients to make their investments more future-oriented, sustainable, and data-driven, both nationally and internationally. With more than 300 years of experience, Van Lanschot Kempen brings this ambition to life together with around 2,200 colleagues across various areas of expertise.
You will join the Blue Team, which is responsible for the Security Operations Center (SOC) and is one of the core teams within IT Security. Although the team is not small, its responsibilities are extensive, which means you can take on a broad range of tasks while receiving support from experienced colleagues. You will also quickly gain a deep understanding of Van Lanschot Kempen, as security alerts can arise from any part of the organization and require prompt follow-up.
Alongside the Blue Team, the Red Team consists of ethical hackers and penetration testers who simulate real-world attacks to identify vulnerabilities. In addition, other specialized security teams focus on areas such as security engineering, purple teaming, and strategic initiatives that strengthen the organization's overall security posture. Collaboration between all IT Security teams is strongly encouraged.
The degree of innovation and agility of an organization depends partly on the diversity of its workforce. Thanks to our differences, we strengthen each other. We encourage an inclusive work environment where all colleagues feel at home. With us, you can simply be who you are. And we are proud of that.
