Key Responsibilities
A. Functional and Technical
- Develop and implement data security and DLP policies and procedures across enterprise DLP platforms - leveraging tools such as Microsoft Purview, Symantec DLP, Forcepoint, Netskope, Zscaler, or equivalent - ensuring alignment with industry regulations and standards
- Configure and manage DLP rules and policies within the organization's chosen DLP platform(s), including scoped policy targeting, rule conditions, exceptions, and enforcement actions (audit, block, notify, restrict)
- Build and maintain Sensitive Information Types (SITs) or equivalent sensitive data classifiers - including custom regex-based patterns, keyword dictionaries, and document fingerprinting - to detect and protect sensitive data across cloud, email, endpoint, and collaboration environments
- Deploy and manage Information Protection controls including data classification, sensitivity labeling, auto-labeling policies, and encryption to protect data at rest, in transit, and in use across the enterprise
- Utilize Data Security Posture Management (DSPM) tools to identify data exposure risks, shadow data, overshared content, and excessive permissions; translate findings into actionable remediation plans and DLP policy enhancements
- Manage and monitor Network DLP solutions to inspect and control data in motion across web gateways, email, proxies, and CASB-integrated SaaS environments
- Evaluate and assess risks associated with data security and implement controls to mitigate those risks, leveraging DSPM posture insights and DLP telemetry across platforms
- Work with internal stakeholders to ensure that data security and DLP policies and procedures are being followed, and actively identify areas for improvement
- Conduct periodic assessments to identify risks to data security and develop action plans to mitigate those risks across cloud, network, and endpoint channels
- Maintain and update the response plan for investigating and escalating non-compliance events against BMS DLP policies
- Manage, delegate, and track incidents related to violations against BMS DLP policies
- Write and maintain scripts (PowerShell and/or Python) to automate DLP-related management tasks, alert triage, policy updates, and compliance reporting workflows
- Develop and apply Regular Expressions (Regex) for custom sensitive data pattern detection (e.g., PII, PHI, proprietary data, financial identifiers) within DLP platforms and content inspection engines
- Leverage foundational knowledge of Artificial Intelligence (AI) concepts to understand AI-powered detection mechanisms within DLP and data security tools - including trainable classifiers, AI-enhanced anomaly detection, and intelligent risk scoring for insider risk and data exfiltration scenarios
- Develop metrics related to the data protection program's status, performance, and maturity; and leverage those metrics to drive decisions around program enhancements and additions
- Stay current with industry trends and advancements in data security and DLP technologies - including developments in Microsoft Purview, DSPM, AI-driven data protection, and Network DLP - and make recommendations for improvements to existing systems and controls
Qualifications
- Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Information Security, or a related field
- 3-6 years of hands-on experience in data security and DLP, with a solid background in cybersecurity, risk management, and compliance
- Strong hands-on proficiency with Microsoft Purview - including DLP, Information Protection, Compliance portal, Sensitive Information Types (SITs), and DSPM; Purview expertise is a key differentiator for this role
