Security is not a feature.
It's a mindset.
Find the flaws.
Fortify the future.
My name is Antonio Battaglia. I'm a cybersecurity professional specializing in vulnerability assessment, penetration testing, and secure system architecture.
About Me
Discover my journey in the cybersecurity landscape
I'm a master's degree student in Computer Engineering with a strong passion for cybersecurity, with a focus on penetration testing, and embedded systems. I'm currently preparing for the LPIC and OSCP certifications, while actively participating in Capture The Flag (CTF) competitions as both a hobby and a continuous learning strategy.
I was honored to represent my university in the CyberChallenge.IT national finals, where I collaborated with top national talent to solve real-world cyber defense problems. Outside of competitions, I sharpen my skills on platforms like HackTheBox, focusing on realistic infrastructure and red team simulations.
In parallel, I’m part of a Formula SAE team, where I developed the firmware for our race car’s dashboard — an experience that pushed my skills in embedded systems, real-time data handling, and performance-critical C/C++ development.
Currently, I'm part of a nationally funded research project, where I’m designing and implementing an Intrusion Detection System (IDS) for industrial control systems (ICS). This project bridges my passion for cyber-physical systems with real-world impact on infrastructure security.
Comprehensive security assessments to identify vulnerabilities across applications.
Simulation of real-world attacks on applications to uncover vulnerabilities before adversaries do.
Design of resilient system architectures with layered security controls and best practices — from networks to embedded systems.
Swift incident response services to contain breaches, perform forensic analysis, and restore system integrity.
