01
Regulatory and customer requirements
An ISO/IEC 27001 initiative, a NIS2 readiness review or a customer security assessment starts with understanding which security measures are in place, how they work and where gaps remain.
Independent consultant · Denmark
Cybersecurity, risk and compliance consulting
Independent advice. Practical security solutions. Business-focused decisions.
I help organizations identify security weaknesses, respond to compliance requirements and put practical safeguards in place. My work covers technical security assessments, GDPR and data protection, security management, access controls and staff awareness. Where useful, I explain cyber risks in terms of business impact and investment decisions.

Business needs
Security priorities I can help address
A project often starts with a practical question: Where are we vulnerable, who has access, which requirements apply, and which security improvements should come first?
02
Evidence that security measures work
Policies may be written, but there is not enough evidence that security measures work, responsibilities are unclear or important gaps remain before an internal or external audit.
03
New technology and changing risk
New AI tools, digital services and impersonation fraud call for safeguards matched to the risks, clear responsibilities and a practical response plan.
04
Technical security and access controls
Security weaknesses and inappropriate access rights need a focused review, someone responsible for each action and a realistic plan to fix them.
Services
Security services with clear outcomes
We agree at the outset what will be reviewed, what information is needed and what you will receive. The aim is security improvements your organization can maintain, not paperwork for its own sake.
01
Security risk and compliance advisory
Understand security weaknesses, relevant requirements and which improvements matter most.
I review security processes, technical safeguards, responsibilities and documentation against agreed requirements. These may include ISO/IEC 27001, relevant NIS2 duties, GDPR-related controls or customer security expectations. I identify gaps and practical actions. Where useful for management decisions, I estimate what incidents could cost, how improvements may reduce the risk and what risk would remain. Audit and certification preparation focus on documented gaps, evidence that measures work and steps to address the findings.
- Focused reviews of security and compliance gaps
- Security investment analysis with assumptions and remaining risks clearly stated
- Supporting evidence for audits and certification preparation
- Prioritized improvements and assigned responsibilities
- Overview of security measures and supporting evidence
- Preparation for internal and external audits
02
Security management and access controls (ISMS & IAM)
Put clear security responsibilities and access controls in place.
I help establish or improve an information security management system (ISMS): the policies, responsibilities and routines used to manage security risks. I also support identity and access management (IAM), including account lifecycles, regular access reviews and appropriate permissions.
- ISMS setup, operation and improvement
- Risk registers and clear responsibility for security measures
- Identity and access administration (IAM)
- Account and access-rights reviews
- Staff security awareness and maintenance routines
- Documented access rules and assigned owners
03
AI governance and responsible use
Make AI use accountable, transparent and manageable.
I help organizations identify where AI is used, decide who can approve its use and review operational risks. This includes an initial look at which EU AI Act requirements may apply. The focus is on clear responsibilities and processes that teams can follow.
- Overview of AI tools and how they are used
- Acceptable-use and approval policy
- Risk-based review criteria
- Transparency and disclosure practices
- Responsibilities and paths for raising concerns
04
Fraud & impersonation risk
Reduce fraud risks in payments, access changes and information sharing.
I review how an organization verifies identities and approves requests, especially when instructions are urgent or appear to come from someone trusted. My experience in payment-fraud investigation and telecommunications security-product work helps identify stronger verification and approval steps.
- Threat and scenario mapping
- Review of identity-verification steps
- Independent approvals and separation of duties
- Escalation and incident paths
- Prioritized procedural improvements
05
Technical assessment & penetration testing
Find security weaknesses through agreed, authorized testing.
Work may include vulnerability analysis, tests based on realistic threats and penetration testing. Before testing, we agree in writing which systems are included, who is responsible for them, the testing rules and how normal operations will be protected. Findings explain how an attack might work, how far its effects could spread, which fixes matter most and how results can be checked again. Availability depends on written authorization, suitable operating conditions and insurance confirmation.
- Vulnerability and control assessment
- Authorized, scoped penetration testing
- How an attack might happen and where systems are exposed
- Business consequences and prioritized fixes
- Clear findings and criteria for testing fixes
Assessment method & delivery
How I assess security threats and business impact
Risk assessment
From realistic threats to business consequences
I examine the same risk from several perspectives: an external attacker, an insider with elevated access, a compromised supplier or a person attempting fraud. This helps uncover weak security measures and dependencies that a compliance checklist may miss.
A risk matrix helps compare how likely an incident is with how serious its consequences could be. I distinguish immediate effects on identities, data and services from wider effects on operations, finances, contracts and regulatory obligations. The result is prioritized safeguards, clear owners and decisions about the risks that would remain.
I estimate the potential financial impact of security incidents over a defined period. This includes how likely an incident is, its immediate and wider business consequences, and any relevant regulatory exposure. For investment decisions, I compare these estimates with the costs of safeguards, their expected effectiveness and the risks that would remain. I state assumptions and uncertainty clearly. The analysis supports decisions; it does not guarantee savings.

Selected experience
Experience behind the consultancy
Selected engagements and projects illustrate the work performed; they are not client testimonials or claims of certification.
Translating cyber risk into financial impact
I developed and delivered a financial-risk assessment model for a technology company. It linked security scenarios, incident likelihood, immediate and wider consequences, relevant compliance exposure and possible improvement costs to help leadership compare security investment options.
GSMA SAS-UP FS.18 control development
Established controls relevant to GSMA SAS-UP FS.18 certification preparation, updated the internal audit plan and identified gaps and ways to address them ahead of an audit.
ISMS ownership and operational security
Managed and maintained the information security management system (ISMS), including risk assessment, security controls, access administration and a staff security-awareness program.
Vulnerability remediation and tested SaaS recovery
Remediated findings from third-party penetration testing. My confidential bachelor case study evaluated SaaS backups and actual restoration against business-continuity needs, without disclosing internal service details. The bachelor project received grade 12 (highest Danish grade); my examiners recommended further research, which I did not complete.
Product leadership and task-scoped security engineering
I originated the VMS (Vishing Mitigation System) concept and guide product research and direction. I participated in developing and testing a working proof of concept and assist with assigned scripting, refactoring, unit-testing, database, identity, certificate-design and Docker/Kubernetes integration tasks. My co-founder leads the overall technical implementation.
VM4AI governance direction and AIR configuration framework
VM4AI is the governing brand and technical direction behind AIR. I developed AIR as an open-source configuration and governance layer for bounded, reviewable AI-chatbot work environments, with evidence checks and traceable handoffs. Its role is conceptually similar to a VM configurator, not actual virtualization software. AI-agent support is a future direction; AIR does not guarantee correct outputs or constitute independently certified assurance.
Elastic SIEM laboratory integrations
Integrated multiple Elastic SIEM modules in practical cybersecurity coursework. This demonstrates applied academic experience, not professional SOC/SIEM platform ownership.
Scripting and systems integration
Wrote functional PowerShell, Python and Windows Batch scripts; used AI assistance for JavaScript while reviewing and testing the results. Integrated Zabbix monitoring and built webhook/BYOK integrations for personal projects. Specific production experience depends on the technology and assignment.
Payment fraud and dispute investigation
Investigated disputed and fraudulent card transactions and later led business support for complex cases.
Evidence-based Project Fit Check
I conceived, designed and developed the Fit Check on this website. It compares the requirements a visitor confirms with selected, publicly documented examples of my professional work. It highlights relevant experience, questions to resolve and working conditions to agree before a call.

About
Technical security experience with a business perspective
I hold a Professional Bachelor in IT Security and an AP Degree in IT Technology from Business Academy Aarhus. My training includes penetration-testing methods and technical security assessment. My documented work includes managing an ISMS, administering identity and access controls (IAM), preparing for audits and certification, and addressing security vulnerabilities. It also includes payment-fraud investigation, security-product development and AI governance.
As a Callerwall co-founder, I shape product concepts and direction while contributing to assigned scripting, testing, identity and integration tasks under my technical co-founder's lead. My applied experience includes PowerShell, Python and Windows Batch scripts, Zabbix monitoring integration and independent webhook/BYOK projects. These different contexts are distinguished in the evidence above.
Under VM4AI, I develop AIR as a configuration and governance framework for bounded, reviewable AI-chatbot work environments. I explain security findings in terms of business consequences, budgets and management decisions, with assumptions and uncertainty clearly stated.
I do not resell software, licenses or hardware. My recommendations are based on assessed risks, relevant compliance requirements and security measures the organization can operate and maintain.
