If you think you could support Visa as a Cyber Defence Analyst, we want to hear from you – together, let’s make Visa a great place to work.

What’s it all about?

Cybersecurity is at the beating heart of our culture. Our diligence and expertise is what makes us the undisputed leader in electronic payments.  We’ve made it our priority to create top-tier security operations and incident response teams, poised to defend us against any potential cyber threats.  

We’re looking for those of you who are inherently driven and fascinated by the art and science of cyber defence. We’ll arm you with the very best tools and tech so that you can deliver top notch results. 

Development underpins job fulfilment at Visa. As Cyber Incident Response Analyst, you’ll be enthused by getting stuck into various defence and security sector related projects, as well as the chance to work with people from a range of disciplines, as well as colleagues and clients at every level.

What we expect of you, day to day.

• We’ll need you to identify cybersecurity threats and confidently perform analysis of anomalies on Visa networks

• Monitor Cybersecurity alerts though the use of a Security Information and Event Manager (SIEM) to triage, mitigate and escalate issues

• Coordinate the initial workflow and response for different case types with both internal and external Visa teams

• Collaboration is key! We’ll need you to work closely with operational support staff to ensure they are actively engaged in potential security threats and concerns

• This role means you’ll be providing round-the-clock support for our global security operations centre. Analysts work a 12-hour shift pattern, including holidays and weekends – so commitment is everything here
