Captain Air Greenland and Consulting EFB administrator
Bio
Thomas is an airline captain with a strong background in IT, software development and EFB management.
Alongside his flying career, Thomas has worked extensively with the implementation and administration of digital cockpit systems, giving him a practical perspective on the growing dependency between flight operations, software, connected services and external technology providers. He also has a background in software development and has taught subjects including cloud technologies, databases and IT in general.
In recent years, his focus has increasingly turned towards aviation cybersecurity and information security, particularly the challenges created when operationally critical cockpit systems rely on complex software supply chains and mobile platforms such as the iPad.
Thomas is particularly interested in bridging the gap between cybersecurity theory and day-to-day flight operations - understanding not only how systems should be protected, but how cyber incidents can actually be detected, managed and recovered from in the operational environment.
