Veronica started her forensic career in 2008. Veronica is also the Interim Programme Lead for Digital Forensics and Incident Response at Noroff University in Norway, where she replaced a warm climate with a more adventurous one. Veronica holds a Master in Science at Rhodes University in Information Security with a specialisation in the forensic analysis of malware. She is currently doing her PhD in cybersecurity at the University of Plymouth in the UK. Her PhD is about designing robust logs for medical devices. She prides herself on keeping patients safe, as this is something close to her heart (quite literally). She is also a cyborg, sporting an embedded medical device herself. She is also a DEF CON goon, and she is the founder of DC2751, and the OWASP Kristiansand project. She has a love for all things ransomware and understands the low level details forensically.

Her particular research interests include research into security vulnerabilities in medical devices forming part of the Internet of Things, and how these could be exploited by malicious attackers, as well as what types of forensic artefacts could be identified from any attacks. She believes that incident response should be something that is continuously done and improved on. She is extremely passionate about protecting people whose lives depend on these medical devices, and her passion led her to become a researcher within an MDM. She is also developing a digital forensics and incident response approach dealing specifically with implanted medical devices and medical devices installed within a healthcare setting. At her core, Veronica is a forensicator and hacker, in love with every bit, byte, and nibble of knowledge she has obtained. She has a strong belief that the o in logs stand for observability.

FutureHabits is my counter-design to the usual self-optimization:

🔹 No “more discipline” slogans

🔹 No 10-step morning routine for people with 2 hours of free time

I work with people who carry a lot of responsibility and that’s exactly why they fail at habits:
because stress eats behavior.

I combine behavioral science principles (how behavior is formed and why it breaks), clear structure, and pragmatic execution:

🔹 small interventions you can actually stick to in real life
🔹 focus on everyday problems: overwhelm, sleep, digital stress, distractibility, and the feeling of constantly falling behind
🔹 nature as your supporter

Right now I’m turning FutureHabits into a book, building on my online course, community, and coaching experience.

🔗 Book: https://book.futurehabits.guide
🔗 Community & Online Course: https://community.futurehabits.guide

Topics
🔹 Habits & intentional behavior change
🔹 Stress & performance (without hustle)
🔹 Focus & energy management
🔹 Resilience
🔹 Self-leadership
🔹 Sustainable energy
🔹 Closeness to nature

Audience
🔹 Professionals
🔹 Leaders / executives
🔹 Tech leads
🔹 People in high-pressure roles

Not for: people who only want inspiration but don’t want to change anything
