Overview

The Information Security Architect (ISA) performs two primary functions within the Security Architecture Engineering Team. The first of these is to act as an initial point of resource engagement on all projects requiring Information Security input. The ISA will work closely with project teams to understand project requirements in fine detail and assess all technical security aspects of the proposed solution. The ISA will then identify any areas where additional mitigating controls may be required in order to reduce residual risk and allow Information Security a level of comfort in endorsing the proposed solution.

The second function the ISA is to design and document all controls managed by the Security Architecture Engineering team and ensure that all existing documents are kept up to date. In this capacity, the ISA will need to keep abreast of all updates and feature releases, seeking to implement wherever these are deemed to be beneficial to the overall security posture of the business.
