Cryptography Business Analyst

Cryptography Product Business Analyst at our large financial institution will be responsible for analyzing, evaluating, and implementing cryptographic solutions to ensure the security and integrity of our organization's data and communications. This role will involve working closely with various stakeholders to understand business requirements, design cryptographic systems, and provide expertise in encryption technologies. This role can be performed in a hybrid model, where you can balance work from home and office to match your needs and role requirements.

What you will be responsible for

As Cryptography Product Business Analyst you will

• Conduct analysis of existing cryptographic systems and identify opportunities for improvement.
• Collaborate with stakeholders to gather and document business requirements related to cryptography products and services.
• Evaluate and recommend cryptographic solutions, protocols, and algorithms based on industry best practices and regulatory requirements.
• Design, implement, and test cryptographic systems to enhance data protection and secure communication channels.
• Work with technology teams to integrate cryptographic solutions into existing systems and applications.
• Perform risk assessments and security audits to identify vulnerabilities and propose mitigation strategies.
• Provide guidance and support to internal teams on cryptographic key management, secure key exchange, and secure data transmission.
• Monitor and analyze cryptographic trends, emerging technologies, and threat landscapes to anticipate potential risks and opportunities.
• Collaborate with compliance and legal teams to ensure cryptography practices align with regulatory standards and industry guidelines.
• Create reports and documentation related to cryptographic implementations, findings, and recommendations.

What we value

These skills will help you succeed in this role

• Demonstrated knowledge of the data security and information protection domains and aligned experience with DLP, DSPM, and DAR tools
• Expertise in cryptographic systems including PKI, HSMs, and key vaults and experience integrating cryptographic solutions for data-at-rest and data-in-motion across cloud and on-premise environments Proven experience in security architecture for both applications and infrastructure.
• Experience in security architecture, with a focus on hybrid, multi cloud solutions and IoT.
• Strong technical governance experience developing standards, policies, controls in large regulated organizations.

Education & Preferred Qualifications

• Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Information Security, or a related field. Advanced degree or certifications (e.g., CISSP, CISM) preferred or equivalent experience through work experience.
• Proven experience as a business analyst in the field of cryptography, information security, or financial services industry.
• Strong understanding of cryptographic principles, algorithms, and protocols (e.g., AES, RSA, ECC, TLS).
• Proficiency in cryptography tools and libraries (e.g., OpenSSL, Bouncy Castle) and familiarity with cryptographic standards (e.g., FIPS, NIST).
• Excellent analytical and problem-solving skills with a keen attention to detail.
• Ability to communicate complex technical concepts effectively to both technical and non-technical stakeholders.
• Experience working in a regulated environment with a strong focus on security and compliance.
• Strong project management skills with the ability to prioritize tasks and meet deadlines. Knowledge of blockchain technology and its cryptographic principles is a plus.
• Strong interpersonal skills and the ability to work effectively in a team-oriented environment.
