EXPERIENCE
Professional Background
I work professionally in the field of offensive security for a private company based in Italy, where I perform in-depth security assessments, penetration testing, red teaming, and vulnerability research.
In parallel, I operate as a freelance consultant, providing offensive security services with a strong focus on real-world exploitability, attack paths, and business-critical risk.
RESEARCH
Vulnerability Research
My research activity includes vulnerability discovery, coordinated disclosure, CVE publication, and participation in bug bounty programs across a wide range of technologies and organizations.
I focus on vulnerabilities that demonstrate practical security impact, especially in web applications, APIs, infrastructure, authentication flows, authorization mechanisms, and application logic.
Security Through Practical Exploitability
I believe technical depth matters most when it is connected to real-world impact. Understanding how a system works is important, but understanding how its assumptions can fail is where meaningful security research begins.
