ABOUT CHRISTOPH HEBEISEN
With over a decade of leadership in security research organizations, I find that one of their biggest challenges is transforming research outcomes into tangible business benefits.Directing and aligning a research program with strategic business goals is a challenging and dynamic balancing act and one at which I excel.My deep understanding of security issues across a wide range of technologies enables me to guide researchers towards business-critical outcomes as well as bridge the gap to the business side by communicating requirements and impacts to diverse audiences with varying degrees of domain knowledge including executives, engineering, product management, sales, and customers. This ability to translate knowledge for a target audience has made me a go-to expert for communicating technical content to the media and the public.I am passionate about building collaborative, high-performance teams with a focus on mutual learning and opportunities for researchers to grow not just their technical knowledge but also leadership and communication skills.
