I am a professor of information security and computer networks at Hochschule Worms, where I am also the scientific director of the Center for Technology and Transfer, and lecturer at the FernUniversität in Hagen. Earlier, I was a PostDoc at the Dep. Cyber Security of Fraunhofer FKIE in Bonn, where I led a research team on smart building security. I received both, my doctoral degree (2013) and my habilitation (Dr. habil., 2020), from the Faculty of Mathematics and Computer Science at the FernUniversität in Hagen.

A list of my ca. 180 publications can be found here. I also wrote some non-academic books about the Linux operating system and contributed open source code/patches to the free software community. There is a list of selected talks that I gave. I am a member of several steering committees, initiatives, program and organizing committees (cf. details). I am (or was) lecturing and supervising at several institutions. A list of my projects, both funded and spare-time software projects, is also available. Last, but not least, I founded the stego punk research group.
