Lebenslauf

  • Seit Okt. 2006: Forscher am Lst. für Embedded Security
  • 2004: Auslandssemester an der University of Sheffield, UK
  • 1999: Studium der Elektro- und Informationstechnik an der Ruhr-University in Bochum
Neben regulären Lehrveranstaltungen an der Ruhr-Universität Bochum lehrte Timo auch an der Hochschule Bonn-Rhein-Sieg in Sankt Augustin und an der Fakultät für Informationstechnik der Tschechischen Technischen Universität (CVUT) in Prag.

Forschung

Timo beschäftigt sich aktiv mit der Sicherheit eingebetteter Systeme, mit besonderem Fokus auf den Themen:

  • Sicherheit kommerzieller Embedded Systems
  • RFID und Funkkommunikation
  • Fehlerinjektionen und Seitenkanalanalysen
  • Mikrocontroller, Smartkarten und FPGAs

Timos Diplomarbeit Embedded Security Analysis of RFID Devices wurde mit dem 1. Platz des Förderpreises für IT Sicherheit 2006 (CAST, Darmstadt) ausgezeichnet. Seine Dissertation Security Analysis of Pervasive Wireless Devices - Physical and Protocol Attacks in Practice wurde mit dem 1. Platz des Promotionspreises für IT-Sicherheit 2012 prämiert.
