Civilian Career Paths

Career associations are editorial assessments of the cited evidence, not an official crosswalk unless the evidence explicitly says so. O*NET supplies civilian occupation information, not proof of a military match. Related experience does not confer civilian qualifications. Tasks and tools below describe civilian work, not military training.

DIA Analysis Officer

Directing intelligence analysis that combines foreign-language, cultural, threat, and cyber knowledge transfers to DIA's analysis of foreign military capabilities in cyberspace.

How to prepare: Prepare an unclassified analytical writing sample on a foreign cyber capability to practice for DIA's writing test and panel interview. DIA requires U.S. citizenship and security clearance approval, with background screening and any required medical and counterintelligence-scope polygraph examinations.

Digital Forensics Analysts

Oversight of cyber collection, exploitation, and forensic analysis provides a foundation for examining digital information associated with network intrusions.

How to prepare: Complete a hands-on forensic lab that preserves a system image, analyzes intrusion logs, and documents evidence-handling procedures to demonstrate practical skills beyond oversight.

What the civilian work involves
  • Adhere to legal policies and procedures related to handling digital media.
  • Analyze log files or other digital information to identify the perpetrators of network intrusions.
  • Create system images or capture network settings from information technology environments to preserve as evidence.
Civilian tools and software (examples)
  • Linux
  • Splunk Enterprise
