I studied computer science at FAU Erlangen-Nürnberg.
Currently, I am a PhD candidate in the System Security group.

My research interests are focused on Trusted Execution Environments (TEEs), confidential computing (Intel TDX), software isolation, and systems programming.

If you are enrolled as a computer science student at FAU, I can directly supervise your bachelor/master thesis and master project. Note that not all available open theses may be publicly advertised. You can always write a kind email containing some information about you to julian.funk@fau.de and we’ll chat for available options.
