Contribute to post-incident reviews and Root Cause Analysis (RCA) by supporting evidence collection and follow-up actions. Help track and maintain incident metrics and documentation, ensuring accuracy and consistency.

Perform technical evaluations of third-party solutions, supporting the Information Security and teams with assessments and technical input. Work hands-on with security tools, platforms, and technologies, gaining exposure across infrastructure, networks, cloud, and applications.
