Your impact as a Vice President, DFIR
The Digital Forensics unit in Aon’s Cyber Solutions is the heart of the firm’s reactive cybersecurity consulting services. Our team works in many investigative and technical areas to help clients solve problems. Casework may include: the preservation and forensic analysis of operating systems; the collection of evidence from various devices and networks; document forgery analyses; user activity timelining; deletion, spoliation, and obstruction of justice analyses; IP theft investigation and remediation; interviews of technical staff; IoT device data analysis; online investigations; data analytics; client consultation; expert report writing; post-breach incident response; and more. Success as a member of the Digital Forensics team requires nimbleness and perspicacity. You are well-suited to thrive as a cybersecurity consultant when, at heart, you are a detective; you are a scientist; you are an advocate for the facts. You are a coder, a tinkerer, and a curious mind. You are a technical generalist and an expert witness. You solve puzzles. You are a translator of arcane technical scenarios and forensic artifacts into clear, compelling findings for legal, corporate, and government clients. You enjoy working in a challenging, ever-evolving, high-stakes consulting environment. You are as comfortable speaking in front of lawyers and executives as you are at a hackathon. You are self-sufficient at learning new technologies and can code up clever solutions to problems when adequate tools don’t exist. You like working hard and helping clients find creative solutions to difficult and mission-critical technical problems. You thrive in a diverse, supportive workplace where everyone strives to improve their technical skills collaboratively.
As a Vice President, you will manage local and regional teams of experts in running high-stakes, high-profile investigations for our clients. You are expected to have mastery of the fundamentals of running cybersecurity investigations. You will apply your deep industry experience and thought leadership in cybersecurity to your casework and client management. You will work at the direction of a Managing Director or Executive Managing Director in the unit to scope, coordinate, oversee, and perform numerous client cases. You will publish and speak on relevant topics in our industry, drive the strategic direction of the firm, and help build Aon’s Cyber Solutions service offerings. As a regional team leader, the quality of the Digital Forensics unitâs work and its continuing sterling reputation will rest with you.
