Your missions

Business Wire, a Berkshire Hathaway company, is the global market leader in press release distribution and regulatory disclosure. We are on a mission to redefine how organizations connect with their audiences - and that’s just the beginning!

Organizations, large and small, depend on us to accurately publicize market-moving news and multimedia, and generate social engagements that develop interactions with their target audiences.

About the Role 
At Business Wire, we are committed to building a world-class cybersecurity program that sets the standard for excellence in the industry. Our approach is rooted in innovation, resilience, and a deep understanding of the evolving threat landscape while ensuring our core values of attitude and aptitude, collaboration and integrity are at the forefront of all we do. As we continue to grow and protect our global operations, we are seeking top-tier talent to join us in this mission.
 
This critical role is responsible for the early detection and analysis of potential cyber threats, helping to protect our organization’s digital assets and infrastructure from malicious activities. The Threat Intelligence Analyst will be at the forefront of identifying, analyzing, and responding to emerging threats, ensuring that Business Wire remains secure in an ever-evolving threat landscape.

What You Will Do
  • Monitor specific cyber threat actors to understand their tactics, techniques, and procedures (TTPs), and leverage this knowledge to protect the organization.
  • Identify and analyze threats during the early stages of an attack or compromise, focusing on detecting threat actor activities, including exploitation and risk to critical systems.
  • Conduct proactive threat hunting to uncover hidden or unidentified threats, track down malicious agents already present in the network, and remove them from the environment.
  • Use a hypothesis-driven approach and behavioral analysis to uncover connections and correlations between potential cyber threats.
  • Document findings from threat detection activities, incident investigations, and threat actor monitoring, ensuring all information is recorded accurately for future analysis.
  • Assist in the development of security awareness programs to educate employees on emerging threats and how to recognize and respond to them.
  • Continuously gather, analyze, and share intelligence on current and emerging threats from various sources, including open-source intelligence (OSINT), dark web monitoring, threat feeds, and industry-specific information sharing groups.
  • Support red team exercises by providing threat intelligence insights that simulate real-world adversary behaviors.
  • Collaborate with IT and DevOps teams to ensure that threat intelligence informs the secure development and deployment of applications and systems.
  • Monitor for indicators of advanced persistent threats (APTs) within the organization's network, identifying long-term, stealthy threats that may be targeting sensitive data or intellectual property.

  • What You Will Need
  • 3+ years of experience in cybersecurity, with a focus on threat intelligence, threat hunting, or incident response.
  • Excellent analytical and problem-solving skills, with the ability to think critically and connect the dots between seemingly unrelated events.
  • Strong communication skills, with the ability to document findings clearly and provide actionable recommendations.
  • Ability to work independently and collaboratively within a fast-paced, dynamic environment.
  • Strong understanding of threat intelligence methodologies, threat actor TTPs, and threat hunting techniques.
  • Familiarity with data analysis tools, behavioral analysis techniques, and security information and event management (SIEM) systems.
  • Bachelor’s degree in Cybersecurity, Information Technology, Computer Science, or a related field. A Master’s degree is preferred.
  • Relevant certifications such as Certified Ethical Hacker (CEH), GIAC Certified Incident Handler (GCIH), or Certified Information Systems Security Professional (CISSP) are highly desirable.
  • Business Wire will not sponsor a new applicant for employment authorization for this position.
