  • Existing 8570 CSSP Analyst Certifications (CEH), CySA+, etc.
  • Familiarity or experience using cybersecurity frameworks such as MITRE ATT&CK, CIS Controls, NIST CSF, or CSA CCM.
  • At Leidos, we don't want someone who fits the mold-we want someone who melts it down and builds something better. This is a role for the restless, the over-caffeinated, the ones who ask, what's next? before the dust settles on what's now.

    If you're already scheming step 20 while everyone else is still debating step 2... good. You'll fit right in.

    Original Posting : September 10, 2025

    For U.S. Positions : While subject to change based on business needs, Leidos reasonably anticipates that this job requisition will remain open for at least 3 days with an anticipated close date of no earlier than 3 days after the original posting date as listed above.

    Pay Range :

    Pay Range $85,150.00 - $153,925.00

    The Leidos pay range for this job level is a general guideline onlyand not a guarantee of compensation or salary.
