Tim Julian Eismar
IT Security Student & Professional
My focus is on threat intelligence, forensics, and robust application security.
About
My journey into technology began with a strong foundation in Mathematics and Computer Science, which naturally led me to the dynamic field of IT Security. Currently, Having completed my Bachelor's degree, I am now deepening my expertise by pursuing a Dipl.-Ing. / Master's in Information Security at FH St. Pölten, while continuing to gain invaluable hands-on experience at Telekom Security.
My time at Telekom Security has given me a comprehensive view of the modern threat landscape, beginning with foundational roles in Threat Intelligence, Fraud Detection, and Digital Forensics. I have recently transitioned to the CrowdStrike Engineering Squad in Vienna, where my passion for problem-solving is applied to the challenges of advanced endpoint security and threat response.
When I'm not immersed in code or security protocols, I'm an avid outdoorsman, enjoying mountaineering, climbing, and photography. I'm also a firm believer in the power of community and contribute to Open Source projects whenever I can.

Homelab
To complement my theoretical knowledge, I run a homelab which serves as my personal playground for testing, learning, and experimenting with enterprise-grade technologies. It's the backbone of my hands-on experience.
Hardware & Virtualization
Running on a SFF machine, I use Proxmox VE for virtualization, hosting a variety of Linux containers and virtual machines for different services.
Networking & Security
My network is managed with an OpenWRT router for robust security. I leverage VLANs to segregate traffic between my personal devices, IoT gadgets, and the lab environment.
Automation & Services
Configuration is partially automated using Ansible. The lab hosts various services, including a media server, and development environments, all managed as code.
Monitoring
Comprehensive monitoring is in place to track the performance and health of all services, ensuring high availability and providing insights into resource utilization.
