Short Bio
After having studied Mathematics at ETH Zurich, I have worked in information security related positions in industry at the time when the Internet was emerging in the early 2000s.
Visiting what is today called the CAS in Computer Science at ETH Zurich, I have met the back then newly established Information Security Group of David Basin, where I did my PhD on the topic of formal modelling and verification of security protocols. After completion of my PhD I stayed for another year in David Basin's group as a research assistant before I headed back to industry, where I worked in various information security related positions (software development, security architecture, prototyping, security research).
In my last position, before joining ETH as a Senior Scientist in May 2020, I have worked as a scientific project manager in the external page Cyber Defence Campus at external page armasuisse Science & Technology. Over the last years, I have worked on a part-time basis as the coordinator and as a lecturer of the continuing education programs in cyber security at the computer science department of ETH Zurich.
