Candidate K: Cyber Analyst with Security Clearance

Career Excellence:

• Lead a team of cyber analysts in managing computer network exploitation and cyber operations projects through active collection and internet traffic analysis to drive target development on previously unexploited target networks of interest.

• Extensive experience conducting Open-Source Research (OSR) and OSINT methods using publicly available information (PAI) and Special Operations Tool Kit (SOTK, formerly Berber Hunter Tool Kit BHTK) in the digital operating environment.

• Integrate data from a unique unconventional “next generation ISR” platform of collateral telemetry data (Adtech data) repository/tool to enrich national collection capabilities through daily use of tools like Tableau, Microsoft Excel and Google Earth.

• In depth knowledge of multiple communications systems protocols such as internet routing, WIFI networking, and cellular infrastructure to enumerate networks for cyberspace operations.

• Managed collection priorities and collaborated with NSA, CIA and HSI and CBP to build lasting relationships that streamline national resources to assist tactical units resulting successful cyber operations against regional malign actors.

• Facilitate the collection, analysis, and reporting of digital network intelligence in support of regional and combatant commanders’ priorities that directly contribute to TGRAM and EGRAM reporting vehicles.

• Lead a team of multi-disciplined intelligence professionals to accomplish commander’s priority requirements through sensitive activities to identify critical nodes and target digital network infrastructure within Latin American region.

• Advised Senior Intelligence Officers on strategic courses-of action that led to the greatest effects based on the operating environment

• Utilized IC, commercial, and all source databases to conduct digital network information and dialed number recognition analysis of national adversarial networks. Managed tasking for collection and analysis of information led to national-level reporting that garnered critical feedback from IC and inter-agency partners.

• Developed critical relationships between Theater Special Operations Command, Joint Special Operations Command Elements, and USCYBER Command that led to multiple tactical ground opportunities in order to establish critical terrain in the cyberspace domain against SOCSOUTH’s priority targets.

• Managed database access for over 123 military and government contracted personnel operating throughout 7 different forward deployed outstations.

• Deployed as a TDNA in support of NSW forward staged outstation within East Africa to provide near real time SIGINT analysis, ISR Tactical Coordination of Airborne and Overhead SIGINT assets, and operate and maintain a national-level static collection site.

• Provided critical information directly to Ground Combatant Commander during 12 combat operations with East African Partner Nation Forces to deny and disrupt Violent Extremist Organizations (VEO).

• Partnered directly with inter-agency ground forces in order to coordinate and deconflict SOCOM and JSOC priority targets within East Africa.

• Conducted document and media exploitation of VEO telecommunication devices.

• Accrued over 1800 combat flight hours on deployments to CENTCOM and AFRICOM AOR’s to conduct time-sensitive tactical airborne Signals Intelligence (SIGINT) in support of special operations forces.

• Operated specialized technical equipment to collect and geo-locate Wifi networks and coordinate with onboard IMINT sensors to locate high value targets.

• Deployed to the Pacific theater to perform real-time ELINT collection and reporting during Sensitive Reconnaissance Operations. Routinely satisfied multiple national and theater level information needs.

• Utilized various analog and digital receivers, pulse analyzers, spectrum analyzers, oscilloscopes, wide band recorders, and direction-finding equipment to collect ELINT.

• Tested and evaluated experimental collection and electronic attack systems for various corporations and research laboratories. Provided expert feedback on positive characteristics, design flaws and future improvements.

• Responsible for the memorization and rapid recall of over 300 radar signals.
