Hans Wagner (Principal IT Consultant) 

What’s your main task?

On the one hand, I deal with the setup or optimization of information security management systems, cybersecurity management systems compliant with ISO 21434 or with GDPR-compliant processes at the customer. On the other hand, I advise our customers on security architecture and the implementation of security measures in workflows (IAM, software development, DevOps, etc.) or concrete IT products. For me, the insights gained in the eMobility environment, in vehicle technologies of the future and in other interesting, specialist areas outside of information security are extremely interesting.

Which technology excites you the most and why?

New technologies are the most appealing to me, because here you can play a formative role in shaping them and the solutions are not simply lying on the shelf.

While it's a challenge to stay on top of things, working in teams that are involved with new technologies is exactly what I enjoy the most. In this environment, I usually come across colleagues and customers who are on my wavelength.

Why did you decide to work in a consultancy with a focus on information security?

In IT consulting, in contrast to an IT position with a customer, I get much more variety and insight into a wide variety of industries, and as part of my job I can also ask questions that I myself have always been interested in about the industry. Also, the diverse contacts you can make and the different perspectives on the same subject area through discussions with different people at different management levels give me important insights that I could not get otherwise.
