Moscow, Idaho that is!

 

The University of Idaho is seeking aspiring candidates for the role of IT
Security Manager. This is a position especially suited for someone with some
experience as a security analyst that is ready to take on a bit more.

As Idaho's flagship, land-grant, high-research University our direct
presence extends to almost every county in Idaho, but our impact goes far
beyond. This is a great opportunity to take on an important security role,
yet still enjoy the comforts of small-town, western living.
