This will involve implementing robust access controls, network security measures, data encryption, and continuous monitoring to detect and respond to threats effectively.
• • For application security, you will work with development teams to integrate security into the software development lifecycle (SDLC), promoting secure coding practices, conducting security reviews, and managing application vulnerability testing.
• • On the corporate IT front, you will oversee the management and security of our internal IT infrastructure, including endpoints, networks, and business applications. This encompasses ensuring the availability, performance, and security of systems that support our employees' daily work, thereby enhancing overall productivity and employee experience.
• • Success in this role will be measured by the strength of our security posture, the resilience and reliability of our internal systems, and the creation of an employee experience that is seamless and efficient, allowing the business to operate at peak performance without security impediments. You will be a key influencer in driving technological excellence and ensuring that Redox remains a trusted partner in the healthcare data ecosystem.
