Summary
Tobias Kantusch is a security-focused software engineer and master's student with 9 years of hands-on experience building scalable, secure systems using Python, Go, C and TypeScript. He has led large CTF and education initiatives at the Hasso Plattner Institute—designing a Kubernetes-backed challenge platform, custom hardware challenges, and a WireGuard VPN to support thousands of concurrent users—and turned that work into CyberGamesEDU for nationwide cybersecurity education. As an IAM Engineer at GIZ he architects secure authentication and authorization flows with Keycloak, Kubernetes and modern web stacks. Tobias mentors students across courses and real-world attack-defense simulations, and brings a practical penchant for breaking things to make them more robust, evidenced by his active CTF work in reverse engineering and binary exploitation.
