As an Emanation Security (EMSEC) Technical Specialist, you will be provided with specialist training to enable you to be involved with the planning, testing, inspecting, certifying and reporting of all EMSEC related activities including analysis of the Navy’s radio communication and ICT systems.

These assessments provide the cornerstone of robust communications within Navy’s deployed Defence Information Environment.
