Managing a portfolio of critical conceptual and implementation projects within the global OT security transformation program
"Over multiple years, Markus has successfully managed a range of high priority projects within our production and R&D cybersecurity transformation.
This included among others the development and global implementation of cybersecurity incident management in OT, preparing, piloting and implementing SIEM, IDS, patch management and malware technologies and advising on multiple essential decision-making processes on process design, organizational challenges and technology issues.
Within that time Markus has become a trusted advisor to our management and a key contact point within the program."

Analysis and optimization of multiple units and core processes in international HR organizations
"I have worked with Markus repeatedly over multiple years.
He has always provided great advisory and project management on the analysis, optimization and digitalization of processes and structures within my HR services organizations.
His capability to dive into the required operational details, challenge the status quo and still have a realistic view on the potentials, but also provide management-ready decision support and ambitious, but actionable options has been crucial to the projects' success."

SOC/Security Operations Center development and optimization
"We have been developing our security operations center and its key processes to meet regulatory demand and of course the actual increase of threats and attacks that we are experiencing.
Markus has provided valuable advisory, guidance and input and thereby substantially contributed to transforming and optimizing our SOC processes, including the optimization of vulnerability management and implementation of a critical incident management process.
The results of the overall project enable us to meet our organization's needs and drive further optimization."

Innovation and digitalization in international tax management
"In order to optimize our tax management function, we decided to initiate a major innovation and digitalization project which integrated the corporate holding and its main subsidiaries.
Over 1,5 years, Markus has driven the initial blueprint development, prioritization of initiatives, requirements definition, definition of key processes and decision-making on concepts and provider selection as well as initiation of prioritized pilots.
The combination of strong project management and consulting methodology with a clear orientation towards innovation potentials, but still a realistic view on feasibility have been essential for supporting our internal team."

Global introduction of an OT Intrusion Detection System integrated with the central SIEM, corporate Security Operations Center processes and asset management
"I have been working very closely with Markus for several years in which he has become a very important partner not only for his specific project scope, but also for alignment on multiple surrounding challenges in the organization.
Most essential was his role as project lead for the successful global implementation of an OT Intrusion Detection System/IDS and its integration in local organizations and the central security operations processes.
This rollout was also the blueprint for extending the approach to further business divisions."
