My field is Cyber Threat Intelligence (CTI): the discipline of collecting, analyzing and correlating data about adversaries, their tools and campaigns to turn raw signals into actionable knowledge that anticipates and counters threats. Within CTI, I focus on adversary emulation and the imitation of APTs to reproduce real attacker behaviour and stress-test defenses, on attack attribution, and on CTI sharing systems that enable organizations to exchange intelligence at scale.

  • The new personal website is now online, featuring my publications, projects and academic information. A centralized space to share my work in cybersecurity and cyber intelligence.
