I am a PhD Student of the first National PhD in Cybersecurity at IMT School for Advanced Studies Lucca, assigned at the University of Catania, where I joined the Networks and Security Informatics (NaS.Inf) research lab. Currently, I am also a visiting researcher at KU Leuven where I joined the DistriNet research unit.
I hold a Master's degree in Computer Science (Network and Security Systems) from the University of Catania. My Master's thesis focused on cybersecurity risks in modern vehicles.
Before starting my doctorate programme, I worked as a Research Fellow at the Italian Institute for Astrophysics (INAF) for 2 years.
My research interests cover the CySec and Privacy Threat Modelling, (Anti-)Digital Forensics, and Cyber Threat Intelligence fields.
