Research

I investigate topics around cyber resilience.

The fundamental assumption behind cyber resilience is that at some point attackers will be successful. Thus, it is not enough to focus only on defense mechanisms. Strong recovery or fallback options and permanent adaption to new threats have to be in place as well.

With that in mind, I am particularly interested in

  • Research about SBOMs (Software Bill of Materials) and Vulnerability Handling. Also bearing in mind how these two subjects can be combined.
  • Authentication: How to prove identity in a resilient way? This also involves questions of usability, as authentication is strongly related to the human factor.

I am also interested in research ideas that view existing security topics from a new perspective by applying the concept of resilience to them.

Open Thesis Topics

Unfortunately, I have no open topics at the moment. Stay tuned, I am developing some new topics and plan to publish them here by the end of November 2024.


Curriculum Vitae

Before working at the Technical University of Munich, I completed my studies in computer science (M.Sc.) at the University of Leipzig and Waseda University in Tokyo. The focus of my master's degree was on cybersecurity and deep learning. In the field of cybersecurity, I attended courses on the basics of cybersecurity, security issues in Covid-19 warning apps, cryptographic protocols and data protection.
