About me
I am Michael Koppmann, an Information Security Consultant at SBA Research. My mission is to make the world a tiny bit better by promoting systems and patterns that are inherently resilient and less error-prone. I hold a master’s degree in “Software Engineering and Internet Computing” from TU Wien.

My core interests include secure and sustainable software engineering, functional programming, privacy-enhancing technologies, and open source. Beyond code, I care deeply about environmental protection, health and fitness, human rights, and continuous self-improvement.
