Most recently, I co-founded Corelight, a startup that’s bringing our open-source network security monitor Zeek (formerly Bro) to enterprise customers. At Corelight, I was wearing various hats over time: CTO, Head of Engineering, Open Source. I also used to lead the development team behind Zeek for many years. Before Corelight, I was a Senior Staff Researcher in the Networking and Security Group at the International Computer Science Institute. I also used to be an affiliated researcher at Berkeley Lab, working with their security team. Before coming out to Berkeley, I was a research assistant at TU München and Saarland University. Before that, I received a diploma in Computer Science from University of Paderborn, Germany. I’m now back living in Munich, Germany.
Please see my seperate list of academic publications.
