Hello, I'm Renato
Security researcher working across privacy, systems, and AI.
Security researcher building toward agentic AI and cybersecurity from applied cryptography, privacy, systems security, and AI-driven detection foundations.
Dusseldorf, Germany · Open to opportunities from Sept 2026
Overview
A practical research path.
I am a security researcher with applied foundations in post-quantum cryptography, privacy-preserving systems, Linux/kernel security, and AI-driven threat detection. My current direction is the intersection of agentic AI and cybersecurity: using agents to strengthen security workflows while studying how agentic systems can be made more auditable, permission-aware, and resistant to unsafe tool use.
My path started at Universita degli Studi del Sannio, where my BSc thesis investigated equivocal behaviours in trusted Windows software through sandbox-based malware and supply-chain security analysis. At Politecnico di Torino, I built a broad MEng foundation across cryptography, network/cloud security, hardware security, wireless security, kernel security, security verification, AI for cybersecurity, and web application security.
