Senior🎓
Top SchoolAiko Pras is a retired full professor in Internet Security at the University of Twente with decades of leadership in network management, cybersecurity research, and academic program building. He co-founded the Twente University Centre for Cybersecurity Research, coordinated the EU Concordia cybersecurity competence network, and has shaped international standards as an IRTF NMRG founding member and RFC author. His work blends deep technical expertise in network and service management with policy-facing interests like digital sovereignty and the cyber-resilience of critical infrastructure. Honored with the IFIP/IEEE Salah Aidarous Memorial Award, he has steered major research clusters and symposia (IFIP, NOMS, CNSM) and served on advisory boards across Europe. Currently advising the Dutch FLECS program on wind-farm cyber-resilience and active in SIDN’s Klankbordgroep, he continues to translate academic insight into practical national resilience efforts. A less obvious thread through his career is sustained impact on community building—coordinating networks of excellence, editorial leadership, and mentoring that multiplied his technical contributions.
