Elias Ngari Lenz
Principal Consultant, MSc InfoSec, MBA
I help organisations secure their operations, modernise their infrastructure, and deliver IT services with confidence. With a Master's in Information Security and an MBA in International Management, I bring both technical depth and business acumen to every engagement.
Currently a part-time PhD candidate in Cybersecurity at the University of Plymouth (since October 2025), my research focuses on advancing practical security frameworks for enterprise environments. This academic pursuit keeps my advisory work grounded in the latest developments in the field.
Based in Filderstadt, Baden-Württemberg, ELB Consulting & Tech operates as a Nebengewerbe — a part-time freelance practice — allowing me to maintain deep focus on select clients while continuing my doctoral research. I hold ISC² CC and SSCP certifications, reinforcing a commitment to professional standards in information security.
