Hushcon West 2019Presented a technical talk on cellular infrastructure security, focusing on real-world weaknesses in mobile and carrier-adjacent systems. The session drew from hands-on research into cellular protocols, deployment realities, and how attackers exploit assumptions in telecom environments that are often treated as “trusted” or out of scope by enterprise security teams.Hushcon East 2023Delivered a talk centered on hacker culture, attacker mindset, and how security thinking evolves outside formal frameworks. The session explored how curiosity-driven exploration, informal knowledge sharing, and cultural norms shape real attacker behavior more accurately than checklists, tooling, or compliance-driven models.PRaSEC 2023Presented a red-team-focused session on Domain Admin attack paths, blending practical exploitation techniques with philosophical perspectives on adversary reasoning. The talk emphasized how attackers model trust, authority, and system design to move from initial access to full domain control.

I often deliver technical security content to professional and executive level audiences. For example, as a SOC Analyst at IDDA, I directly presented our SOAR (Security Orchestration, Automation and Response) platform to Ministry of Security representatives. I gave a technical walkthrough of the platform architecture, incident automation workflows, threat correlation mechanisms, and presented real world use cases. Subsequent to the presentation, the product received considerable interest from multiple stakeholders and potential investors.I've also attended vendor meetings with Palo Alto and Forcepoint DLP, presenting technical assessments and making workflow recommendations to help optimize the deployment of security products and their integration into the corporate environment.Besides this type of enterprise-level presentation, I've also been the guy on the team to go to an international hackathon. I presented AI security and automation concepts at an innovation event in Georgia. I gave a presentation to a technical evaluation panel, detailing the design of the system, the model for threat detection, and the architecture of the data pipeline.I also took part in the Google AI Hackathon in Kazakhstan, where I presented a detailed technical pitch including model architecture, implementation strategy, and deployment aspects to judges and business representatives.These occasions implied explaining intricate technical details in a digestible form, addressing immediate technical inquiries, justifying architecture choices, and discussing security compromises. I feel at ease presenting deeply technical information to both engineering communities and business leaders.

Andreas Wiegenstein is engaged in SAP cyber security since 2003. He discovered quite a number of zero-day vulnerabilities in SAP software and supported development of a market leading static code analysis tool for the business programming language ABAP. He has spoken at more than 70 conferences world-wide about SAP security, including Black Hat, DeepSec, Hack In The Box, IT Defense, RSA, SAP TechEd and Troopers (alphabetical order). His current research is focused on SAP malware and supply chain attacks.
