Who am I?

A Security Engineer and Cyber Defence Specialist located in Milan and Sondrio

I'm well-versed with various aspects of Cybersecurity and possess solid foundations in defensive and offensive operations. Additionally, thanks also to several courses that I have undertaken, I have developed good skills in conducting network assessments, system hardening, and identifying vulnerabilities.

Apart from my studies, I am a tireless guy and I always like to learn new things, trying to help my colleagues in the best possible way.
