My research
My research is centered on cybersecurity. Through my thesis, I study the applications of federation for detection and mitigation systems, with respect to the confidentiality of the data. After a thorough state-of-the-art, I work on implementing FL–based algorithms to detect and characterize attacks. I simultaneously work on the chair’s test bed, which will host realistic experiments to validate my hypothesis. Our long-term objective is to build a distributed and federated observatory for attack detection, characterization, and mitigation.
