Nicolas Benatti
Researcher and engineer. I build things and write about them.
Hello! I’m a passionate and determined individual with strong interest in System Security, Operating Systems, Compilers and Applied Cryptography. My aim is to help people stay secure, safe and private whenever they interact with a piece of technology; I’d love to contribute significantly to computer security by tackling questions fundamental enough to introduce a change of paradigm, but pragmatic enough to be beneficial in the foreseeable future.
I earned my BSc and MSc from Politecnico di Milano, Italy, focusing on embedded systems and cybersecurity in general. I’m currently a platform research intern at HP Labs in Bristol, UK, where I focus on research on trusted computing technologies like attestation, hardware Root-of-Trust chips and memory safe languages.
I really enjoy everything related to Linux and FOSS in general; when I’m not in front of a computer, I usually cycle, play guitar or obsess over Lou Reed records :)
