Philipp, a former member of our Secure Software Engineering work group, successfully completed his doctorate on the topic of "Scaling static whole-program analysis to modern C and C++ software development" with Prof. Dr. Eric Bodden.
During his doctorate, he researched the topic of static programme analysis for the programming languages C and C++. The aim of such program analyses is the automated detection of vulnerabilities and security gaps in programs. Analysing the C and C++ programming languages is considered demanding and can present researchers with particular challenges.
During his doctorate, he started working at Sonar, a company that also uses static code analysis to improve its customers' software. As a Static Code Analysis Specialist, he applies his acquired skills in practice and develops programme analysis tools for C and C++.
There's no shortage of fun either - for Sonar's annual kick-off event in January, he went to Disneyland Paris for a week-long internal company conference.
