I left RWTH Aachen University and joined Fraunhofer Institute for Communication, Information Processing and Ergonomics FKIE. I am still closely cooperating with COMSYS. The information below will not be updated, please find current contact information on my personal website.
I worked as researcher and head of security and privacy at the Chair of Communication and Distributed Systems at RWTH Aachen University. After having finished my Diploma studies (equiv. M.Sc.) of Computer Science at RWTH Aachen University in 2011, I interned at the Interdisciplinary Centre for Security, Reliability and Trust (SnT) at the University of Luxembourg where I worked on website fingerprinting in anonymization networks. In early 2012 I returned to RWTH Aachen University.
My research focuses on security and privacy in large-scale communication systems and especially the cloud. I worked within the TRINICS project to create transparency on the usage of cloud services and within the SSICLOPS project on the privacy-aware handling of data in the cloud. Previously, I worked on security and privacy challenges of outsourcing sensor data to the cloud in the context of the SensorCloud and IPACS projects. In my spare time I am volunteering as chairman of the alumni club of the students representation for Mathematics, Physics and Computer Science at RWTH Aachen University (VAMPIR e.V.). In 2011, I received the award of the Computer Science Department at RWTH Aachen University for outstanding achievements as students representative within the Computer Science Department and RWTH Aachen University.
We organize a weekly security and privacy lunch at RWTH Aachen University for everyone who is interested.
