Consulting

I occasionally accept consulting jobs, which must fulfill the following criteria:

• the job is compatible with my obligations as civil servant in Germany,
• the contract partner is a reputable organization,
• the job is remunerated at market rates,
• I do not sign NDAs without very good reasons, and they must be specific and contain a sunset provision.

Please consider funding my research group or serving as industry partner in a project seminar with highly motivated students as viable alternatives to a consulting contract.

Declaration of Interest

I hold a minority interest in dence GmbH, a Dresden-based startup offering solutions in the area of digital multimedia forensics.
