I am a computer engineer and software developer with the passion for cybersecurity and privacy. I have completed my bachelor's degree in Computer Engineering in 2016 at the Politecnico di Torino in Italy.
After that, I enrolled in a graduate double-degree program (TOP-UIC) between the Politecnico and the University of Illinois at Chicago.
I received my MSc from both universities in 2018 with a thesis about how websites collect information about smartphones when visited from an Android phone and how this can become a risk for the users' privacy.

After graduation I moved to Santa Barbara (CA) for an internship at the Security Lab at the University of California, Santa Barbara. My research focus there was on the leakage of private information through the usage of services offered by social networks.

Apart from computer science I love travelling, eating good food and watching movies and tv shows. If you want to contact me, feel free to shoot me an email at f.marcantoni94@gmail.com or to reach out through my socials.
