Industry expert takes the helm at IoT Inspector

Jan Wendenburg has taken over the management of IoT Inspector, a company specializing in the security testing of IoT devices and their firmware. Florian Lukavsky, founder of IoT Inspector, takes over the role of CTO and will focus on the further technical development of the powerful IoT security platform.

"IoT security will be the most important task in IT security in the future. Whether critical infrastructures such as energy and water suppliers, airplanes, medical devices or even the robot vacuum cleaner at home - without IoT security, all devices and data can be manipulated, lives endangered and substantial damage caused. IoT Inspector gets to the root of this problem and identifies IoT vulnerabilities across the entire lifecycle - from development to integration and operation"says the new CEO Jan Wendenburg.

With numerous positions at various companies focusing on IT security, Wendenburg is an established expert in the industry. He began his career at IBM as Regional and Branch Manager, founded international IT security companies and most recently restructured Certgate as CEO.
