Remote Cybersecurity Analyst Jobs in Utah
Can you anticipate threats before they surface? We believe cybersecurity isn't just about preventing breaches—it's about safeguarding real people, real systems, and real futures. From Salt Lake City to St. George, if you're based in Utah and ready to work remotely, this is your chance to become the digital shield we count on every day.
Why This Role Matters
Your work will have a ripple effect throughout every department. When you spot vulnerabilities before they become headlines, you’re not just protecting data—you’re preserving trust. In this role, your analysis, foresight, and vigilance directly shape the security of our remote infrastructure and the confidence of thousands who rely on it daily.
We’re not here to micromanage. We’ll trust you to lead threat detection strategies, own incident response plans, and turn complex security logs into actionable insights. You'll partner closely with cloud engineers, compliance leads, and development teams—all while working from the comfort of your home in Utah.
What Success Looks Like
- You detect anomalies that others overlook—and explain them clearly to teammates across departments.
- You’re the calm voice when alerts go off, guiding our team through triage and resolution.
- Your proactive mindset means we’re ready for what’s next, not just reacting to what’s now.
- You contribute to building a secure-by-design culture, helping others make smart, secure decisions.
Responsibilities That Drive Impact
- Analyze network traffic, endpoint activity, and system logs to surface real-time threats.
- Guide security incident responses from alert to resolution—minimizing downtime, maximizing clarity.
- Collaborate with engineering teams to ensure our applications are hardened against the latest threats.
- Conduct vulnerability assessments and prioritize remediation efforts with real-world context.
- Own and refine detection rules, alerting logic, and SIEM tuning to reduce noise and increase signal.
- Translate complex risks into actionable guidance for non-technical stakeholders.
- Help lead tabletop exercises and simulate breach scenarios to keep the team sharp.
The Tools You’ll Rely On
You'll work with a robust remote cybersecurity stack tailored for distributed teams:
- SIEM platforms, such as Splunk or Sentinel, provide centralized visibility.
- Endpoint detection tools such as CrowdStrike or SentinelOne.
- Vulnerability scanners (such as Nessus and Qualys) help stay ahead of exposures.
- Jira and Confluence to track incidents and collaborate with your squad.
- Slack and Zoom to stay connected with peers across departments.
Our Remote Work Philosophy
This isn’t remote in name only. We build our systems, processes, and culture to support remote collaboration at every level. Our cybersecurity operations are decentralized but deeply connected—through shared playbooks, async updates, and constant cross-team alignment.
Your work hours are flexible, but your voice will always be heard. Whether you’re syncing with the compliance team over Zoom or posting a risk analysis in Notion, we’re structured to help you do your best work, wherever you are in Utah.
What You Bring
- A sharp analytical mind and an insatiable curiosity about emerging threats.
- 3+ years in cybersecurity, with a focus on detection, response, or vulnerability management.
- Familiarity with frameworks like MITRE ATT&CK and NIST.
- A proactive approach to risk—you're not just checking boxes, you're shaping defenses.
- The ability to simplify complex ideas—whether it’s in a Slack thread or a Zoom call with stakeholders.
What You’ll Gain
- Annual salary of $90,491, with the flexibility of remote work anywhere in Utah.
- A supportive culture where security is a shared priority, not a siloed concern.
- Opportunities to lead new initiatives, experiment with new tools, and shape our evolving defense posture.
- Growth through mentorship, peer reviews, and company-sponsored certifications.
The Story You’ll Join
Last fall, our detection systems picked up an unusual login pattern across a critical environment. Before the sun rose, our remote analyst in Provo had traced it to a misconfigured identity provider—and closed the gap within hours. No fire drills. No panic. Just quiet, confident protection.
That’s the kind of work you’ll do here. Strategic, steady, and human-centered.
Ready to Defend What Matters Most?
If you’re excited to make a real impact, every single day—from your home in Utah—we’re ready to meet you. Let’s build something secure, together.
