Talks and Seminars

I usually give talks in several universities, international conferences, summer schools, and industrial events. I also often act as a moderator or I give interviews on security and privacy aspects. Here you can find a (very small) selection of events where I was invited that offer some public material.

Summer Schools and Seminars 🇬🇧

Watermarking: Defense and Hazards. Course delivered at the Summer School on Artificial Intelligence for a Secure Society on 5-10 September, 2024 in Capo Vaticano, Italy. The goal of the course is to introduce core concepts of digital watermarking also by considering emerging AI-based applications. The repository with slides, exercises, and companion material is available here.

Malware and Information Hiding: Attack Models and Some Pitfalls. Seminar delivered within the Ph.D. Program in Electronics, Computer Science and Electrical Engineering, University of Pavia, Pavia, Italy on May 2025. [SLIDES].

Keynotes 🇬🇧

Shut Up ’n Hide Yer Data. Keynote on the use of steganography for attack and defense delivered at the PhD Summer School on Extreme-scale Big Data Analytics and Scientific Computing on Heterogenous Platforms, organized by the H2020 Project EVEREST - Design Environment for Extreme-Scale Big Data Analytics on Heterogeneous Platforms. [SLIDES].

Stegomalware: What Is it and What We Can Do? Keynote on core research questions on steganographic malware delivered at the opening of the 5th International Workshop on Criminal Use of Information Hiding (CUING 2021) within the 16th International Conference on Availability, Reliability and Security, 17-20 August 2021.
