Additional KSAT for the following Work Roles

Cyberspace Capability Developer (Additional) ID: 341 (NIST ID: N/A) Workforce Element: Cyberspace Effects

Provides software and hardware capabilities that produce cyberspace effects in and throughout cyberspace operations through vulnerability analysis, and software research and development.

Network Analyst (Additional) ID: 443 (NIST ID: N/A) Workforce Element: Cyberspace Effects

The Network Analyst will understand network traffic signatures and discover anomalies through network traffic and packet capture (PCAP) analysis. The Network Analyst will identify, assess, and mitigate intrusions into networks that are vital to cyberspace operations security. Network Analysts also use GUI or command-line based tools and assist in developing network mapping and signatures. Network Analysts will develop advanced network detection rules and alerts, queries and dashboards to gain a holistic view of the network.

Software Developer (Additional) ID: 621 (NIST ID: SP-DEV-001) Workforce Element: Software Engineering

Executes software planning, requirements, risk management, design, development, architecture, modeling, estimation, configuration management, quality, security, and tests using software development methodologies, architectural structures, viewpoints, styles, design decisions, and frameworks across all lifecycle phases.

Software/Cloud Architect (Additional) ID: 628 (NIST ID: N/A) Workforce Element: Software Engineering

Manages and identifies program high-level technical specifications, which may include application design, cloud computing strategy and adoption, and integration of software applications into a functioning system to meet requirements.
