Information Assurance Policy Analyst

Description:

The Policy Analyst will support the client’s Information Assurance Policy program team within the Office of the Chief Information Officer (OCIO) with development and maintenance of information technology related policies.

Collaboration is required across the client’s divisions and other key stakeholders to ensure appropriate checks and balances are put in place to drive IT acquisitions that always meet security requirements.
