Description
On behalf of our healthcare client, Robert Half Talent Solutions, Technology Division is seeking a Cybersecurity Analyst to support enterprise security operations across clinical, administrative, and patient-facing systems.

Contribute to ongoing HIPAA, NIST, and ISO 27001 compliance efforts, including documenting controls, validating security configurations, and supporting internal/external audits.
Maintain and review IAM controls, including provisioning, deprovisioning, privileged access reviews, MFA policies, and adherence to least-privilege principles.
Assist with vulnerability management activities, including scanning, verifying remediation progress, patch validation, and collaborating with infrastructure teams on risk reduction.
Participate in security assessments, risk evaluations, and periodic control testing across applications, networks, and cloud platforms.
Support change management processes to ensure security considerations are incorporated into system upgrades, new implementations, and operational workflows.
Document incident findings, corrective actions, and recurring issues to support continuous improvement and reduce repeat vulnerabilities.
Collaborate with IT operations, networking, compliance, and application teams to maintain a secure ecosystem and promote best practices across departments.
