I completed electrical engineering with focus on computer science at the technical
university Vienna in 1999 and up to today I worked as self-employed network expert
for larger companies (including service providers, banks, airlines, and secret
services) all over the world.
Until recently I was delivering Cisco-certified courses in behalf of Fast Lane, a world wide operating Cisco Learning Solution Partner. I am currently (2009) certified as CCNA, CCDA, CCNP, CCSP, CAWDS, INFOSEC, NSA/CNSS, as well as HP ASE. During my work, I gathered in-depth experience in several advanced networking areas, including MPLS, Multicast, large-scale Wireless LANs, and especially Security. I have/had also contracts with PRO-IN, Global Knowledge, and NIL.
Today, I mostly give lectures on communications and security in various universities including Technical University Vienna, FH Campus, FH Eisenstadt (resigned 2009), and FH Vorarlberg (resigned 2001).
Recently I added birdwatching to my list of hobbies, besides gardening, astronomy, physics, math, skepticism, and classical music. I am a member of the Austrian society for critical thinking (Gesellschaft für kritisches Denken) -- which says a lot ;-)
