– MEDIA AND PRESS · HANS STUDY

Media and Press. Hans Study. Independent. On the record.

Hans Study is available for press interviews, podcast guesting, expert commentary, and conference panels. The topics where he has the deepest field experience are listed below.

Topics Hans speaks to

IT and physical security convergence

The network is the security system now. Cameras, access control panels, and intrusion devices all run on IP. The teams responsible for the network and the teams responsible for the physical security system rarely talk to each other. That gap is where most security incidents now start.

OT and ICS network security

Critical infrastructure operates control systems where a network failure or a security breach has consequences beyond data loss. Hans has worked on OT segmentation, IT and OT convergence, and NERC CIP advisory across Canadian utilities and US critical infrastructure operators.

CMMC 2.0 and CPCSC

Canadian defence contractors working in US and Canadian supply chains now face mandatory cybersecurity certification. CMMC Phase 1 enforcement began November 2025. CPCSC is in active rollout. Hans speaks to the technical realities of meeting NIST SP 800-171 controls in environments designed before the rules were written.

Genetec, C-CURE, Milestone, Avigilon, Axis, Axon

Platform expertise across the major physical security platforms. Hans speaks to architecture mistakes, common deployment failures, sizing, federation at scale, and the gap between integrator marketing and field reality.

Wireless network design and survey

Predictive design, validation survey, and troubleshooting on enterprise Wi-Fi deployments. Trained on Ekahau and CWNP material. Field experience across Cisco, Aruba, and Meraki wireless in airports, transit, government, and enterprise environments. Hans speaks to why most enterprise Wi-Fi deployments under-perform, what predictive design actually catches, and where the gap between the marketing material and the operational reality shows up.

Mobile and computer forensics

Trained in mobile device forensics and computer forensics. Field experience handling evidence networks and isolated investigative environments for law enforcement and corporate investigations. Hans speaks to chain of custody, evidence network design, and the infrastructure side of digital forensics that does not get covered in the tools-and-techniques content.

Independent consulting in physical security

The conflict-of-interest problem in a market where almost every consultant carries vendor partnerships. Why independent assessment exists and who actually pays for it.

Teaching technical material

Hans taught Cisco CCNA, Introductory and Advanced Networking, and Network and Infrastructure Security at the post-secondary level for multiple years. Hundreds of students went through those programs. The teaching shaped the advisory work. Both depend on being able to explain why, not just how.
