Lead the technical response to network-based threats, including investigation, containment, eradication, and recovery.
Analyze network traffic and security logs to identify suspicious activity and potential threats.
Work with the broader cybersecurity team to conduct post-incident analysis and implement corrective actions.

4. Policy & Compliance:

Ensure that all network security infrastructure and configurations comply with internal policies, standards, and regulatory requirements (e.g., ISO 27001, PCI DSS).
Generate regular reports on the health of network security systems, incident trends, and the team's operational metrics for senior management.
Assist in internal and external audits by providing evidence of network security controls and processes.
