What Does a Cybersecurity Engineer Do?
A cybersecurity engineer keeps an organisation's systems and data safe — hardening infrastructure, monitoring for threats, running assessments, and responding to incidents. Work spans network and application security, access control, and helping other teams build securely from the start.
