THE SELECTED CANDIDATE WILL BE OFFERED A SALARY BETWEEN $155,000.00 - $165,000.00.

The Administration for Childrens Services (ACS) protects and promotes the safety and well-being of children and families through child welfare and juvenile justice services and community supports. ACS manages community-based supports and foster care services, and provides subsidized child care vouchers. ACS child protection staff respond to allegations of child maltreatment. In juvenile justice, ACS oversees detention, placement and programs for youth in the community.

ACS' Office of Information Technology (OIT) is responsible for providing high-quality, reliable, and sustainable technology services as well as IT support to meet the needs of the families and children we serve through ACS, its vendor partners, and other City agencies. Within OIT, the Chief Information Security Officer (CISO) Unit is responsible for establishing and maintaining the information security program at ACS to ensure information assets and technologies are adequately protected. This Unit directs staff in identifying, developing, implementing, and maintaining processes across ACS and its program divisions to reduce information and IT risks. The CISO Unit also responds to incidents, establishes appropriate standards and controls, manages security technologies, and directs establishment and implementation of policies and procedures.

Reporting to the ACS Chief Information Security Officer (CISO), the Deputy CISO role is pivotal for maintaining an enterprise-wide, information risk management program, and cybersecurity organization.

The Deputy CISO will be responsible for performing the following duties, but will not be limited to:

Incident Response and Investigation:

- Work alongside the CISO to lead incident response efforts, including investigation, containment, and remediation of security incidents and breaches in coordination with internal teams and external stakeholders like NYC Cyber and NYC Office of Technology and Innovation (OTI).

Continuous Improvement:

- Monitor emerging threats, technologies, and industry trends to proactively identify areas for improvement and innovation in the agency's information security program.

Reporting and Metrics:
