The Autonomous Penetration testing Lead Consultant joins the Threat & Incident Response Team within the Exposure Management function. This role focuses on modernizing how the enterprise identifies, prioritizes, and mitigates security vulnerabilities by shifting from traditional patching to a strategic focus on business risk and exploitability.
