Background
Research interests include information hiding, network security, using AI for threat detection, optimization of Internet-scale computing infrastructures, and management of complex software supply chains. Recent research topics involve: Information Hiding (e.g., disrupting hidden data via AI-based mechanisms), Code Evolution (using software-related metrics to spot manipulations and injections during the development pipeline), LLMs (integrating LLMs into analysis pipelines for defining test cases or automatic deobfuscation of source code), Privacy and Freedom (implications of security mechanisms on privacy and freedom).
Miscellany
Open to new collaborations or joint projects and seeking students who want to do their B.Sc. or M.Sc. theses on his research topics.
