Summary

After completing my degree in computer science (Dipl. Inform. Univ.), I decided to become self-employed in 1994. I started my career in IT project management, concentrating primarily on supporting small and medium-sized companies and public sector clients. Over time, IT service management was added to my portfolio. I came into contact with IT security at a particularly early stage, partly through my role as interim manager of a data center. IT security and data protection eventually became my core interests. I have now gained many years of experience in these areas and work with both medium-sized companies and large corporations.

I take great pleasure in offering my clients pragmatic and effective solutions. It is important to me to develop practicable concepts rather than theoretical ideals.

In recent years, my main activities have focused on setting up information security management systems (ISMS) for various clients (in accordance with ISO/IEC 27001 and/or BSI IT-Grundschutz). I have often taken on the role of external information security officer and successfully accompanied the companies through the certification audits.
