We are always moving forward - always pushing ourselves to go further in our efforts to build a more equitable, inclusive world for our employees, our customers and our communities.
**The Role**

The incident management process will be used as you respond and manage to cybersecurity incidents.
Cybersecurity Defense is all about information. You'll gather, analyze, and interpret data applying your own and external threat intelligence to uncover potential security threats and risks. These insights and your ability to analyze complex attack scenarios will be the foundation of our security strategy - helping Kyndryl stay one step ahead of security breaches.
In Cybersecurity Defense at Kyndryl, you're not just protecting the present - you're shaping the future of digital security. Join us on this cybersecurity venture where your expertise and creativity will have a lasting impact in the world of digital defense.
