As part of this project, the existing active network infrastructure was modernized and made fit for the future. The goal was to introduce a powerful, secure and scalable network and WLAN infrastructure, including a Network Access Control (NAC) solution to improve network security and centralized access control.

At the beginning of the project, a comprehensive requirements analysis was carried out, taking into account the technical, operational and security-related requirements of the hospital sites. On this basis, a technical tender was prepared for new switches, WLAN access points and the NAC solution.

The successful implementation of the project established a modern, standardized and secure network infrastructure that meets the growing requirements for availability, mobility and IT security in hospital operations.

Activities:

• Supporting the tender process, including technical evaluation of offers and bidder evaluation
• Leading and managing the entire project implementation
• Coordinating the project process with internal stakeholders, business units and hospital IT
• Managing external service providers during the implementation and installation of the systems
• Monitoring the implementation, including quality control, project acceptance and defect management
• Coordinating and managing communication between hospital IT and external service providers as part of the NAC implementation
• Managing escalations in the event of technical and organizational challenges
• Ongoing budget monitoring and control of project expenses and additional costs
• Preparing decision papers for management on project changes, additional services and risks

As a Council Member at GLG (Gerson Lehrman Group), the world’s leading expert network, I provide organizations, investment firms, and consulting companies with expert discussions on demand – wherever specialized knowledge in information security, IT governance, and regulatory compliance is needed.

My assessments are based on many years of practical experience in highly regulated industries: from building and implementing information security management systems (ISMS according to ISO 27001), IT risk and vulnerability management, and business continuity (ISO 22301) to the practical implementation of European regulations such as DORA, NIS2, BAIT, and the Cyber Resilience Act (CRA).

The cooperation is project- and discussion-based. I provide decision-makers with a practical perspective gained from real-world experience on cyber risks, security governance, and operational resilience – exactly when it is needed.
