    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.

    Beyond Work

    Besides his work, Anders is active in crossfit, but he emphasizes that family always comes first. When asked about his favorite gadget, he quickly answers that it's his wireless headphones.

    link22 is proud to have Anders Rönnbrant on the team and looks forward to leveraging his knowledge and experience as we continue to enhance and develop our cybersecurity solutions.

              Fredrik Jansson

              Welcome Fredrik Jansson – Newly Graduated within Data Security and IT Forensics

              Welcome Fredrik Jansson – Newly Graduated within Data Security and IT Forensics

              link22 warmly welcomes Fredrik Jansson to the team. With a strong educational background and practical experience from Saab and the Swedish Maritime Administration, Fredrik is well-equipped to make a significant contribution to our operations. This article delves deeper into his journey, his passion for cybersecurity, and his future with link22.

              Fredrik Jansson

              Master of Science in Computer Security

              link22 is delighted to welcome a new member to our team. Fredrik Jansson, a promising software developer and IT forensic specialist, is ready to embark on his new professional journey with us. We sat down with Fredrik to learn more about his background, interests, and what he brings to link22.

              Fredrik hails from Åby, a town just outside Norrköping. He has a Master of Science degree in Computer Security from Karlskrona, where he focused on web security, machine learning, AI, and digital investigative techniques, also known as IT forensics. During his studies, he worked summer jobs at Saab and the Swedish Maritime Administration, gaining valuable and relevant experience.

              Software Developer and IT Forensics

              At link22, Fredrik is taking on a dual role, combining software development with incident management and IT forensics. As an IT forensic specialist, he will investigate and analyze the aftermath of IT incidents, akin to a digital detective.

              Fredrik's fascination with cybersecurity stems from the dynamic challenges it presents. He is particularly interested in the cat-and-mouse aspect, where one side tries to penetrate defenses while the other side works to keep them out. His Master's thesis, which explored the use of machine learning for cybersecurity, indicates his strong interest in the intersection of these two fields. Moreover, his expertise in IT forensics, a relatively niche area, will be an asset.

              Wellness Allowance and Company Impact

              When we asked Fredrik about his expectations of an employer, he emphasized the importance of a positive physical environment and a friendly team. He values a workplace where he can make a significant contribution.

              To stay motivated, Fredrik underscores the importance of physical exercise. He appreciates link22's generous wellness allowance and fruit basket. In his spare time, Fredrik enjoys playing games, socializing with friends, working out at the gym, and climbing. He is currently working towards his green card in top-rope climbing. His favorite gadget is his 3D printer. He is currently using it to build chassis for Raspberry Pi's.

              As for music, Fredrik prefers hardstyle, but sometimes gets in the mood for rock and classical music.

              For students wishing to join link22, Fredrik's advice is to follow the path he took, through a Master's thesis. This is because it is an excellent way to get to know each other in-depth before entering a potential employment. He also encourages potential applicants to visit link22 at events like SEC-T to gain a better understanding of the company.

              We are thrilled to have Fredrik on board and look forward to fresh perspectives and new energy on the path to a more IT-secure society.

              If you wish to apply for a job or Master's thesis at link22, we would like you to submit your application here.

                link22 Recruits Experienced IT-expert – Marcus Ekbäck

                link22 is pleased to welcome tech enthusiast Marcus Ekbäck as the new Business Area Manager for Cross Domain Solutions. With a diverse background spanning across various sectors, Marcus' passion for technology and strong leadership will contribute to the company's continued growth and pursuit of a safer society.

                 

                Marcus Ekbäck

                Marcus Has a Broad Experience

                link22 is thrilled to introduce Marcus Ekbäck as the new Business Area Manager for the area of Cross Domain Solutions. Marcus, an enthusiastic technologist, will reinforce the team with a broad and versatile experience that spans across several sectors.

                Marcus was born and raised in Hälsingland and has a background in industrial engineering, with a focus on computer science. His interest in technology was sparked early in life when his parents gifted him a Commodore computer, which led him to start experimenting with programming. According to him, his technical direction was a natural choice. His fascination for technology has continued to grow over the years, as evidenced by his passion for home automation and network building.

                Broadband, IP-TV & Composites

                Marcus most recently held a leading position at A-society. His career journey began at Ericsson in Linköping, where he worked with new broadband technologies just as the internet was starting to reach the general public.

                From Ericsson, the journey continued to Motorola, where he took on the role of product leader for one of their IP-TV products. After Motorola, Marcus changed career paths and moved to work for a company manufacturing composites for the defense industry. There, he was head of a project office and also led a large project for an industrial customer.

                Marcus sees his time in sports, specifically tennis, as an important part of his personal and professional development. He believes that his competitive background has taught him the importance of training, patience, and that rewards come to those who work hard. He has taken these lessons from the tennis court into his professional life.

                Technology enthusiast with broad experience

                Marcus most recently comes from a leadership position at A-society. His career journey began at Ericsson in Linköping, where he worked with new broadband technologies just as the internet began to reach the general public. From Ericsson, he moved on to Motorola, where he assumed the role of product manager for one of their IP-TV products.

                Throughout his career, Marcus has built long and deep customer relationships in connection with complex deliveries of high-tech products. His experience, success, and focus on customer benefits are well suited for link22, where the relationship with the customer is important. Delivering components and technology to secure critical infrastructure and citizen's privacy imposes higher demands on cooperation.

                Working Hard Together

                When asked what he finds enjoyable about work, Marcus responds: "When you work hard together towards a goal, when you support each other, and when you reach that goal together! It's also fun when you compete against competitors.”

                Marcus joins link22 with a strong passion for technology, a commitment to collaboration, and a strong drive to create value for all parties involved. These qualities, coupled with his experience from companies like Motorola, Ericsson, and A-society, make him an excellent fit for the role of Business Area Manager.

                We welcome Marcus to the team and are confident that he will be a strong asset in the company's ongoing journey towards a safer society.

                We are growing and constantly looking for more employees. If you, like Marcus, are seeking a meaningful and challenging job, we would be happy to receive your application.

                    Master thesis on data diodes at link22 can lead to employment

                    Master thesis on data diodes at link22 can lead to employment

                    At link22, we are always looking for talented and dedicated students. We make it easy for them to showcase their skills by writing a Masters thesis. The latest example is Ellen Brunnström and Martin Steen-Holmberg, who have just completed their thesis at link22. They have not only delivered impressive work, but have also proven to be fantastic colleagues who fit perfectly into the company culture.

                    We asked Ellen and Martin about their journey. They shared how they became interested in cybersecurity, what it is like to be part of link22, what the future may hold, and what cybersecurity means in their everyday life.

                    Ellen Brunnström and Martin Steen-Holmberg

                    Cultivating an interest in cybersecurity

                    Ellen has been interested in online gaming for as long as she can remember. Computer technology became her passion from an early age. Growing up in Linköping, she felt that there were no other options for her than computer technology. Ellen enjoys problem-solving, particularly software related problems. She loves how software can be taken apart and rebuilt fast to gain knowledge.

                    Ellen Brunnström

                    "The most important thing I learned at university was the ability to learn quickly, rather than specific knowledge of cybersecurity.”

                    Martin has been attached to his computer since childhood. He primarily played games like LOL and COD, and it wasn't until later that he discovered his passion for computer technology. What fascinates Martin about computer technology is the untapped potential. He believes that computer technology can be applied to and improve many areas in society, and that it is full of both meaning and potential. From tracking buses in real-time to streamlining of healthcare and creating 3D models to learn how to dissect.

                    Martin and Ellen received a recommendation to write a thesis at link22 from a person with connections in the industry, they contacted the link22 and soon after received a concrete proposal for a thesis.

                    "It was good for us to receive a proposal. We had something to start from and could quickly return with adjustments that were needed to get approval from Linköping University."

                    A thesis about data diodes

                    The mission was to investigate if a physical data diode could be replaced by a virtual data diode without compromising on function nor security. They concluded that the virtual versions available today are not as secure as a physical data diode, but that they can perform just as well as physical data diodes for some selected criteria. Ellen and Martin believe that virtual data diodes in the future can become as secure as physical ones and that more research is needed in the field.

                    "We received good help from supervisors and experts at link22. Now and then, colleagues came by the thesis office, asked about our work, and offered help. We experienced a wonderful corporate culture full of willingness to collaborate and ambition."

                    Ellen notes that they both appreciated being close to experts with many years of experience to learn quickly. Something they both believe would have been more challenging in a larger company where there are more departments and a steeper hierarchy.

                    Cybersecurity and the future

                    Martin reflects on an attack on a grocery store chain where the cash register system was put out of function. He points out that the weakness of large systems is that an attack can cause severe devastation. He believes that we will see increased system fragmentation to separate "points of failures" and thereby reduce the consequences of each attack.

                    When asked about specialization, Ellen says that right now, it's about comprehending link22 as a whole and cybersecurity as a field. Time will tell whether she will specialize or not.

                    For Martin, computer science is about using technology to make the world a better place and solve real problems. He thinks it's exciting to work in an area where there are constantly challenges and opportunities to learn new things. Through his work in computer technology and cybersecurity, Martin wants to create a better future for everyone.

                    For Ellen, cybersecurity is about solving complex problems and protecting important data from harmful intrusions. Working in cybersecurity gives her the opportunity to work with the latest technology and constantly challenge herself to find new and better solutions to problems that arise. Through her work, Ellen wants to help make digital systems safer.
