  • Follow runbooks, SOPs, and escalate incidents to L2/OT teams when necessary.

L2 – Tier-2 (Second Line)

  • Perform detailed investigations, RCA, and incident validation.
  • Coordinate with OT engineers, SMEs, and asset owners to drive remediation activities such as configuration changes, segmentation updates, and firmware updates.
  • Tune detection rules, reduce false positives, and improve baseline models.
  • Maintain and enhance playbooks, runbooks, and detection signatures.
  • Conduct advanced packet analysis and reconstruct sessions using pcaps.
  • Correlate Claroty telemetry with SIEM, NMS, and other monitoring systems.
  • Manage asset inventory, reconciliation, anomaly detection tuning, and forensic data collection.

  • Basic SIEM knowledge: creating and reading alerts, adding context.
  • Basic Windows and Linux troubleshooting.
  • Familiarity with OT devices such as RTUs, IEDs, PLCs, and HMIs.

L2 Skills

  • Deep understanding of ICS/SCADA protocols (IEC 61850, DNP3, Modbus, IEC 60870-5-104).
  • Advanced packet analysis using Wireshark and ability to reconstruct sessions.
  • Experience with Claroty functions: asset discovery, risk scoring, anomaly detection, session monitoring, forensic retrieval.
  • Ability to create and update detection rules, playbooks, and containment steps.
