Christian Doerr

Professor, PI of the Cyber Threat Intelligence Lab
Hasso Plattner Institute, University of Potsdam


I work in the broad area of network security and critical infrastructure protection. My research focus is designing resilient network systems, localizing and estimating current threats through real-time situational awareness in networks as well as conducting threat intelligence on adversaries.

Prior to joining, I was at the University of Colorado, USA, where I received my Ph.D. in Computer Science and Cognitive Science. While most of my work focuses on technology, I also integrate socio-technical aspects of cyber security with this background in my research.
