About

I am a Postdoctoral Researcher in Computer Science and Engineering at Università degli Studi di Bergamo, Italy, under the supervision of prof. Stefano Paraboschi. My research focuses on Computer Security & Privacy with a focus on Access Control, Data Protection, Cloud Security and Micro-architectural / Hardware Security. I am also interested in Operating Systems, Algorithms, Programming and CTF competitions.

I am a member of the Security Laboratory of Università degli Studi di Bergamo: Unibg Seclab

From October 2024 to March 2025 I’ve been a Visiting PhD Student at IMDEA Software Institute (Madrid) under the supervision of prof. Marco Guarnieri.
