Job description
Who we are...
Latitude is a growing Service-Disabled Veteran Owned (SDVOSB) Company within the Federal Sector. We have experience in working with various federal clients across multiple different agencies.

Description...

What you will do...
-
Design, configure and validate security controls for applications and the environments they run in.
