About

PhD student in the field of mobile security with a special focus on tamper resistant hardware integration on mobile phones. Besides this, my research interests also include digital identities, cryptography, mobile application security and indoor localization. Before I became employed at the Institute of Networks and Security, I was working at the University of Applied Sciences Austria Upper Austria, Campus Hagenberg where I also received my masters degree at the Mobile Computing program in 2012.

Research Interests: 
Hardware-level security on mobile phones, digital identities, cryptography, mobile application security
