Key Responsibilities: Security Validation Across Infrastructure

Perform security QA testing across infrastructure layers including network configurations, cloud environments, operating systems, and application interfaces.

Validate and test firewall rules, access control policies, encryption standards, IAM configurations, and vulnerability remediation.

Ensure secure configuration of servers (Linux/Windows) and cloud platforms (AWS, Azure, GCP) by testing compliance with hardening guidelines and benchmarks (e.g., CIS, NIST).

Collaborate with application developers to test for security vulnerabilities (e.g., input validation, authentication flaws, insecure APIs) in alignment with the OWASP Top 10.

Integrate SAST, DAST, and SCA tools into CI/CD pipelines to automate detection of insecure code and dependencies.

Design and execute negative test cases, abuse cases, and edge-case testing to simulate malicious activity.

Testing Procedures & Documentation

Develop and maintain standardized security QA test procedures, checklists, and scripts that align with company policies and compliance frameworks. Document all findings, test results, and remediation guidance in a structured and accessible format. Create reusable templates and test frameworks to ensure consistent and efficient security testing across projects.

Collaboration & Continuous Improvement

Work cross-functionally with IT, DevOps, cloud, and application teams to improve security assurance during development and deployment. Support incident response teams by validating fixes post-breach or vulnerability discovery. Contribute to security awareness and training initiatives, helping other QA and development staff understand secure testing practices.
