I am a Lecturer (Assistant Professor) in Computer Science at the Department of Informatics of King’s College London, and part of the Cybersecurity Group (CYS).
My research interests lie at the intersection of AI and cybersecurity, with particular focus on intrusion detection, adversarial ML, and systems security.
I completed my Ph.D. in Computer Science as a member of WEBLab at University of Modena (Italy) in March 2017, and I spent most of 2016 as a visiting research scholar at University of Maryland, College Park (US). I have then held a two-year PostDoctoral position in the Systems Security Research Lab (S2Lab) in the UK.
I’m Hiring! I am recruiting Ph.D. students to join my research group at King’s College London. If you are interested, read this page.
