About

Hello! I'm Benjamin, welcome to my website! I currently live in Sweden where I work as a postdoc researching Information Security at Chalmers University of Technology. I'm part of the new CyberSecIT project.

I'm very interested in information and cybersecurity. As our daily lives depend more and more on technology and our system becomes increasingly complex, I believe security will prove to be of paramount importance to our future. Hopefully, I can help make our technology safer for everyone.
