Cybersecurity Analyst

e& International Holding is seeking a talented and security-focused Cybersecurity Analyst to join its growing cybersecurity team in Abu Dhabi. This is an outstanding opportunity for IT professionals who are passionate about information security, cyber defence and protecting enterprise digital infrastructure. As one of the world's leading technology and telecommunications groups, e& operates across telecommunications, cloud computing, artificial intelligence, fintech, digital platforms and enterprise technology solutions in more than 30 countries. The organisation continues investing heavily in cybersecurity to protect its customers, networks and digital services while supporting global digital transformation initiatives.

As a Cybersecurity Analyst, you will play a critical role in protecting the organisation's IT infrastructure, cloud environments and digital assets from cyber threats. You will monitor security systems, investigate suspicious activities and implement proactive measures that strengthen the company's overall cybersecurity posture. Working alongside experienced security engineers, network specialists and IT teams, you will contribute to safeguarding one of the region's largest digital ecosystems.

Your primary responsibility will be monitoring Security Information and Event Management (SIEM) platforms, analysing security alerts and responding to potential cyber incidents. You will investigate unusual network activity, identify vulnerabilities and coordinate with internal teams to contain and resolve security threats before they impact business operations.

The successful candidate will perform regular vulnerability assessments, security audits and risk evaluations to identify weaknesses across enterprise systems. You will recommend security improvements, assist with implementing security controls and ensure all technology environments comply with internal security standards and international cybersecurity frameworks.

Daily responsibilities include reviewing firewall logs, monitoring endpoint security platforms, analysing intrusion detection and prevention system alerts, managing identity and access controls and supporting incident response investigations. You will document security findings, prepare technical reports and maintain accurate records of cybersecurity incidents and remediation activities.

The role also requires collaboration with cloud infrastructure, network engineering, software development and compliance teams to integrate security best practices into business operations. You will support security awareness initiatives by educating employees about phishing attacks, password protection, social engineering risks and safe digital practices.

Candidates should possess a Bachelor's degree in Cybersecurity, Information Technology, Computer Science, Information Security or a related discipline. Previous experience in cybersecurity operations, security monitoring, SOC environments or IT security will be considered a significant advantage.

Strong knowledge of cybersecurity technologies such as SIEM platforms, Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR), firewalls, intrusion detection systems, vulnerability scanners and cloud security solutions is highly desirable. Familiarity with Microsoft Sentinel, Splunk, QRadar, CrowdStrike, Microsoft Defender, Palo Alto Networks or Cisco Security products will strengthen your application.

Professional certifications such as CompTIA Security+, CEH (Certified Ethical Hacker), CISSP, CISM, Microsoft Security Certifications, Cisco CyberOps or similar industry-recognised credentials will be considered an advantage.

Excellent analytical and problem-solving skills are essential because you will investigate security incidents, assess cyber risks and recommend practical mitigation strategies. The ability to work under pressure, prioritise security alerts and communicate technical findings clearly to both technical and non-technical stakeholders is critical for success in this role.

Team members gain hands-on experience with advanced cybersecurity technologies, cloud platforms, artificial intelligence and enterprise digital solutions while supporting one of the region's largest technology organisations.
