Marc Rennhard is a professor for computer science at the ZHAW (Zürcher Hochschule für Angewandte Wissenschaften, Zurich University of Applied Sciences), focusing on information security.

Before joining the ZHAW, I graduated as Dipl. El.-Ing. ETH (M.Sc.) from ETH Zürich in 1998, specialising in the areas communication systems, information theory and information security. I then joined the company Solution Providers AG as an IT consultant before I returned to ETH Zürich as a research assistant, where I completed my dissertation about anonymous Internet communication in 2004. I hold the CISSP security professional certification since 2004 and the ETH teaching diploma for higher education since 2003. Occasionally, I’m also doing some work as an IT security and strategy consultant at Consecom AG.
