Information Security Specialist
Digital Forensics, Incident Response, and Threat Intelligence
I help organizations contain and resolve high-impact security incidents, perform court-ready forensic investigations, translate threat intelligence into effective threat hunting, and turn complex technical findings into clear and understandable information.
With over a decade of experience, I have led incident response engagements across SMEs and large enterprises, spanning malicious insiders, ransomware, and nation-state APTs. My work covers DFIR leadership, threat hunting, and security operations, with a focus on resilient architectures and repeatable response.
I am a court-certified expert witness in Austria (68.60 IT security, 68.62 IT forensics), hold degrees in computer science from Vienna University of Technology (TU Wien) and UAS Hagenberg, and teach university courses in information security and cyber defense.
