About the speaker

Tobias Schroedel

Germany's first IT comedian

This is how the computer magazine CHIP described the accomplished IT specialist and professional speaker on hacking – because Schroedel has the unique ability to explain the depths of complex IT systems, the methods of hackers and dry data protection requirements in a simple and easily understandable way, even for non-technical audiences.

His trademark: fun is never neglected – in his entertaining talks full of aha moments, humour shines through every bit and byte.

Trained IT specialist, international IT solutions and security concepts, "Computer Science Expert" in a globally operating IKT corporation – and widely known to the public through his appearances on stern TV and his successful podcast "Ich glaube, es hackt!"

Talks

Topics

From ransomware to AI – live, gripping and straight to the point.

Darknet
RECOMMENDATION SUPER EXCITING PROTECTS YOUR COMPANY

RANSOMWARE AND CYBERCRIMINALS IN THE DARKNET

A LIVE visit to the darknet. Watch how cybercriminals operate – and how to protect yourself and your company.

+

A talk like a thriller! The biggest current threat to companies are cybercriminals who first steal data, then encrypt it and ultimately demand "ransom". If you don't pay, contracts, emails and trade secrets end up online for everyone to see. Follow Tobias Schroedel on a journey through the dark side of the net. Look over the shoulders of ransomware gangs in the darknet – LIVE. You will be speechless when you find and sift through millions of stolen data records. Of course, there is also an explanation of how to protect yourself. Time flies in this talk! Promised!

ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE

Finally understand AI! How to use it and what it can do – and what risks it entails.

+

The slightly different AI talk. Tobias Schroedel tries out AI tools live: from ChatGPT to image generators. What can AI do – and why does it sometimes fail at simple tasks? Experience how AI works, learns and thinks – and why it only guesses that a horse has fur. After this talk you will no longer be afraid of AI – but perhaps of those who operate it.

Live Hacking
THE CLASSIC

LIVE HACKING

The awareness classic: password crackers, spoofed phone numbers, cloned bosses in video calls.

+

The classic – the live hacking show that has enthused thousands of people worldwide. From password crackers to caller ID spoofing to deepfakes and voice cloning in video conferences. Not only plenty of "aha" moments, but just as many "ha-ha" moments. An awareness training of the highest order.

Awareness done differently
