At link22, we view cybersecurity as a fundamental part of society's infrastructure. "We have solutions for managing sensitive information and ensuring that the right person has access to the right information at the right time," says Marcus Ekbäck - Business Area Manager at link22. This contributes not only to Sweden's defense capabilities but also ensures that information that needs to remain confidential, stays confidential.

Working in cybersecurity is not just technically challenging; it also provides a sense of contributing to something bigger. "It feels meaningful to help protect the power supply. That our food deliveries arrive as they should, that I can use public transport whenever I want," explains Marcus Ekbäck. "So much today relies on our digital infrastructure. We must be sure that it works."

A robust cyber defense is not only important for Sweden's resilience and preparedness but also for our ability to continue living our lives as usual. It is easy to take for granted that our basic societal functions will continue to always be available. Build businesses, play sports, go to the theater, and socialize with those we care about are all things that have come to rely on the digital infrastructure.

LINK Days is a two-week period filled with activities designed to give students the best possible conditions to make connections with the working world and secure summer jobs, internships, or thesis projects. We at link22 will participate in Personal Meetings on 22/11, a one-on-one meeting between a student and a company representative. Helena Gällerdal Högfeldt and Björn Knuthammar will represent us at these meetings.

On 23/11 from 10:00-16:00, we will participate in the fair. Hanna Karlström, Joakim Forsberg, and Emelie Carlberg will be there to answer all your questions about cybersecurity and the opportunities to write your thesis and build a career with us. We will be located in Kårallen, so come by and say hello!

To conclude the LINK Days, on 23/11, a banquet will be held at Linköping Concert and Congress. Here, company representatives and students will have the chance to mingle in a relaxed and festive atmosphere. We at link22 will be there, so take the opportunity to meet us and get to know us a little better.

Originally from Uddevalla, Anders moved to Linköping in 1998 to undertake Sweden's most challenging civil engineering program - Applied Physics and Electrical Engineering. During his time at the university, he was fascinated by one of the nation's few supercomputers located nearby, leading him to a summer job that turned into a gap year and later full-time employment. His passion for technology led him to Saab, where he spent nearly a decade as a systems engineer and developer of simulation systems.

Speaking about his new role as Solution Architect within IT-security at link22, Anders explains that his primary task will be to develop holistic solutions that meet customer requirements by integrating link22's product portfolio. With his prior experience from both Saab and Cambio, he looks forward to the challenge of finding the perfect combination of user-friendliness, and security.

Anders has a specific interest in defending critical societal infrastructure and the integrity of citizens. He believes it's crucial to create solutions that ensure our society continues to function at its best. Moreover, while link22 has extensive expertise in Windows, Anders, with his lifelong experience with Linux, will bring a new dimension to the company.

Since the company's inception, link22 has consistently strived to deliver cybersecurity without compromise. With a team of almost 30 dedicated individuals in Mjärdevi, link22 has established itself as a leading player in the cybersecurity sector, providing robust security solutions that protect both critical infrastructure and the integrity of citizens, research findings, and business secrets.

The role of a technology-driven development manager isn't just a job – it's a pivotal part of the company's future vision. Entrusted with leading a team of 20 developers, IT architects, and project managers, this leader will drive and shape link22's technical advancements, ensuring the company's ability to deliver unwavering cybersecurity.

However, technical knowledge alone won't suffice for this role. The ideal candidate possesses a passion for technology, a strong desire to assist others in their growth, and a continuous ambition to innovate and improve. Previous experiences in software development, personnel management, and working with development environments are crucial for this role.

Mjärdevi By Night offers a unique opportunity for everyone to delve deep into the technological world, and we look forward to contributing our share of knowledge and experience. From fun technical demonstrations to meaningful conversations. The evening will be filled with educational and inspiring moments. The event takes place on the 26th of October between 16:00 and 19:00.

Since our inception, we at link22 have focused on providing reliable cybersecurity solutions. Our goal is to continuously protect and preserve the digital integrity of authorities, companies, and individuals alike. During the event, we will showcase some of our most prominent products, including Shield, our solution designed for secure meetings.

For those interested in a future in cybersecurity, the evening also offers an opportunity to get to know us better and explore the career opportunities we have to offer. We are always eager to meet talented individuals who share our passion for security and innovation. At Mjärdevi By Night we will especially be looking for Senior Developers and IT-technicians.

Annually, Sweden's cybersecurity professionals convene at Münchenbryggeriet for a conference. Experts, companies, authorities, and other stakeholders are present. This year, the conference offered a series of intriguing lectures that touched on new threats and opportunities resulting from well-developed LLMs (Large Language Models) and more traditional challenges in established areas.

In keeping with tradition, SEC-T challenges the participants with a difficult puzzle; this year was no exception, and many worked diligently to find a solution. Beyond puzzles and lectures, attendees enjoyed socializing, evening festivities, booths with giveaways, and spontaneous hacks. It's a pleasure to be a gold sponsor for an event that engages and gathers genuinely passionate individuals who are fervent about security and IT.

Viktor grew up in Gävle from where he then moved to Örebro to become a M.Sc. in Computer Science at the University of Örebro. His theoretical interest carried him further and he went on to write his master thesis at the Swedish Defence Research Agency (FOI). He stayed at FOI researching sensors and image processing. After years in the more theoretical realm, Viktor feels urged to apply his knowledge in the real world, something he looks forward to doing at link22.

Viktor has touched on many areas of software and hardware development, but not specifically cybersecurity. The desire to learn something new was one of the reasons he was drawn to link22.

"Cybersecurity is becoming increasingly important in today's society; that was a reason for me to apply to link22."

A combination of personal development and a large-scale trend was reason enough for Viktor to seek employment at link22.
