Eckert was born in 1959 in
Duisburg. After studying computer science at the
University of Bonn,[3] she completed a Ph.D. in 1993 at the Technical University of Munich, with the dissertation Konzepte und Verfahren zur Konstruktion sicherer, verteilter Systeme.[4]
After a professorship at the
University of Bremen,[3] she became chair for IT security at the
Technische Universität Darmstadt in 2001, and headed the Fraunhofer Institute for Secure Information Technology in Darmstadt from 2001 to 2011. In 2008 she moved to Munich, as professor for IT security at the Technical University of Munich and head of the Fraunhofer Institute for Applied and Integrated Security.[2]
She received the
Bavarian Order of Merit in 2021.[7] In 2022, Manager Magazine named Eckert to their Hall of Fame of German Research.[8]
