Werner Schober

Werner Schober has been working as a professional IT Security consultant for SEC Consult since 2015. Besides being quite active in the SEC Consult Vulnerability Lab, where he identifies vulnerabilities in standard software, he is a penetration testing generalist. He likes to probe for vulnerabilities in everything which runs code, ranging from Android apps, smart homes, Wireless Networks, heavy-duty machines to whole Windows domains. During his research at the University of Applied Sciences St. Pölten he focused on smart meter and smart grid best practices concerning IT Security resulting in graduating with a Bachelor of Science. Pushed by the knowledge he gathered during his daily work at SEC Consult with various IoT devices, he decided to go a step further and analyse a myth-enshrouded IoT category for his Master Thesis - Smart Sex Toys. The research project "Internet of Dildos" was born. Werner is now focusing on the identification of vulnerabilities in smart sex toys for his master thesis.
