Senior Corporate Security Analyst

Toast creates technology to help restaurants and local businesses succeed in a digital world, helping business owners operate, increase sales, engage customers, and keep employees happy.

6. Data Protection & DLP

• Support data protection initiatives across Google Workspace, Slack, and other collaboration platforms.
• Assist with the design, tuning, and enforcement of DLP controls.
• Participate in investigations related to data exposure or misuse.

7. Security Awareness & Process Improvement

• Support security awareness training and phishing simulation programs.

8. Mentorship & Ownership
