In the resilience coordinator track, soldiers use monitoring tools to find leaks, anomalies and exposures of IDF assets in public spaces, carry out technological forensic investigations of computer equipment, or research malware. In the information and cyber security track, soldiers set security policy, support operations, exercises, weapons and classified projects, run audits and awareness training, manage permissions on classified networks and work with media, spokesperson and foreign relations bodies.
Security interviewers decide whether candidates for classified roles are suitable, through face to face interviews and preparation for a polygraph test. Security analysts collect and assess information on soldiers' suitability for classified roles, using various systems and working with the General Security Service.
