While completing his Bachelors' degree in Computer Science, Thomas Bringewald found a connection with IT security, which led to a Masters' degree in network and information security. Then, as a security engineer, he designed and implemented concepts for endpoint and network perimeter security with a focus on ICS networks, requiring him to take the special requirements of ICS and SCADA into account. Lars Seifert and Thomas Bringewald are colleagues and first-time SharkFest presenters.
