Who are we?

Smarsh empowers its customers to manage risk and unleash intelligence in their digital communications. Our growing community of over 6500 organizations in regulated industries counts on Smarsh every day to help them spot compliance, legal or reputational risks in 80+ communication channels before those risks become regulatory fines or headlines. Relentless innovation has fueled our journey to consistent leadership recognition from analysts like Gartner and Forrester, and our sustained, aggressive growth has landed Smarsh in the annual Inc. 5000 list of fastest-growing American companies since 2008.

As an Information Security Analyst at Smarsh, you will be responsible for evaluating the cybersecurity and third-party risk posture of our clients within highly regulated industries. Utilizing our advanced Vendor Risk Management (VRM) and Cybersecurity Compliance platforms, you will ensure that vendor environments meet rigorous security standards.

By combining expert analysis with automated monitoring, you provide the visibility needed to safeguard sensitive data and neutralize liabilities before they emerge.

Primary Responsibilities

Strategic Risk Advisory: Review vendor risk by evaluating security assessments and documentation; deliver actionable recommendations to strengthen client risk postures.

Technical Security Assessments: Conduct comprehensive vulnerability scans and penetration tests for Smarsh customers using industry-leading, off-the-shelf security tools.

Vulnerability Reporting: Produce detailed technical reports that categorize vulnerabilities and provide actionable remediation strategies to help clients resolve security gaps.

Client Relationship Management: Serve as a subject matter expert and primary point of contact, guiding clients through platform features and cybersecurity best practices via phone and email.

Operational Leadership: Manage regular client engagements, deliver high-quality due diligence reports, and contribute to the continuous improvement of Smarsh VRM team operations.
