about me

I’m a PhD student at Télécom Paris (Institut Polytechnique de Paris), working with Ampere, part of Renault Group. My research is on machine learning–based intrusion detection systems for vehicles.

I studied Computer Engineering at the University of Bologna, where I got both my bachelor’s and master’s degrees. In 2022, I joined CyberChallenge.IT and made it to the final national competition. I was also part of the Ulisse CTF Team and AdmStaff, the sysadmin group at my university.

In the same year, I did an exchange at Sorbonne Université, followed by an internship at Télécom Paris on AI and cybersecurity, which became the basis for my thesis.
