At Allstate, great things happen when our people work together to protect families and their belongings from life’s uncertainties. And for more than 90 years, our innovative drive has kept us a step ahead of our customers’ evolving needs. From advocating for seat belts, air bags and graduated driving laws, to being an industry leader in pricing sophistication, telematics, and, more recently, device and identity protection.

Exposure Intelligence Analyst – Applications & APIs (OWASP / SAST-DAST / Auth) Role: Exposure Intelligence Analyst – Applications & APIs (SME) Job Profile & Family: Lead Consultant- Threat & Incident Response Team and overall work scope The team operates within a newly established Exposure Management function in the broader cybersecurity organization, focused on modernizing how the enterprise identifies, prioritizes, and mitigates security vulnerabilities shifting from traditional patch approaches to a more strategic focus on true business risk and exploitability Individual Contributor/ Lead Consultant roles are designed to bring in deep respective domain expertise (network, endpoint, cloud, identity, infrastructure, Databases & Data Stores, Applications, API’s etc.) to bridge the gap between security insights and practical remediation strategies The Exposure Intelligence Analyst – Applications & APIs is the SME responsible for identifying and prioritizing exposure risk across application ecosystems, including web applications, APIs, authentication/authorization flows, and application security testing signals (SAST/DAST) . The role applies CTEM principles to connect findings to real attack paths and partners with engineering teams to drive remediation that measurably reduces exploitable exposure. Success Measures Reduction in exploitable app/API attack paths (especially auth/access control driven). Improved remediation speed and reduced re-occurrence of common failure patterns. Higher signal quality and prioritization accuracy for application findings.

(Core + Domain) Exposure Intelligence (Core) Translate application findings into exposure intelligence and exploitability-based prioritization. Identify attack paths involving auth flaws, insecure APIs, weak session handling, and privilege boundaries. Produce clear remediation guidance and partner with app owners to validate closure. Applications & APIs (Domain) Own SME coverage for web/app/API exposure including OWASP-class risks and API misuse patterns. Identify systemic patterns: broken auth, insecure direct object references, injection paths, weak access controls, insecure secrets handling. Partner with dev teams and AppSec stakeholders to improve secure patterns and reduce recurring exposure creation.

3+ years in application security, AppSec engineering, security operations, or exposure management. Understanding of web security fundamentals and common API/application attack patterns. Ability to translate technical findings into business risk and practical engineering fixes.

Experience with SAST/DAST tools, vulnerability triage, and secure SDLC concepts. Familiarity with modern auth patterns (OAuth/OIDC), API gateways, and microservices. Strong collaboration skills with engineering orgs; ability to drive measurable change.
