Yente Gielen
Cyber Security Lead, IT at UZ Leuven
With a bachelor's degree in Applied Informatics and a healthy interest in the world of Cyber Security I began my journey. In the two years at a major consultancy firm I had the pleasure to experience numerous projects in Identity protection, Incident response and pentesting. After two years I decided to make a switch to Healthcare, to really make an impact and protect those who are most vulnerable, the patients. After three years at UZ Leuven I now focus on shaping and managing the cyber security policies and practices in our hospital.
