Job Summary
Comcast delivers the most innovative and one of the largest ISP infrastructures in the world delivering connectivity to millions of customers from homes to Fortune 100 enterprises. Our team is responsible to scan this environment to identify risks at internet scale. We navigate massive data at scale, looking for hard to find signatures of new and evolving risks to Comcast's enterprise and the internet.

Then this role will partner with the appropriate teams across Comcast and the telco industry to identify remediation actions. Do you dream of finding systemic threats to the internet at scale? Do you want to apply your knowledge of threat hunting to identify these risks and work to remediate them with Comcast's best and brightest cyber risk remediation teams? Then this is the role for you. On any given day you will spend time parsing external threat feeds (both purchased and open source threat blogs from other research teams) and determining its applicability to our current analyses. With that intel you will work with threat researchers across other organizations to better understand the source of the threat, update analyses based on this understanding and ultimately work to create protection or remediation pathways based on this analysis and understanding.
