Well, it's actually the same as my old job.
Title: I.T. Security Analyst
For: The Government of Manitoba
Pay: $18.96/hour
Hours: 8:30 - 4:30, Monday - Friday
I start this Thursday, and it's till August 30. It'll be fun again, I love this job! I figured I'd post it here for everybody to see. The kinds of things I do:
- Keep up to date on vulnerabilities and stuff that affect us
- Try out new products (firewalls, IDS, IPS, etc.)
- Monitor IPS and Firewall logs
- Do pen-tests on servers that are being set up Internet-facing (generally Solaris, it's very rare that we let a Windows server face the Internet)
- Do forensic-type work if an employee's computer is compromised or if they get caught doing something wrong
- Make coffee
- Water plants
- Change backup tapes
- Get the mail
- To quote one of the guys I work for, "Other duties as assigned"
It's a small office with 4 full-timers and 2 students (me and Chris, who I've never met but I hear is a cool guy). It'll be fun!
