Claudio Marforio

In brief

I am a PhD student at the ETH Zurich in the System Security Group from September 2010. I received my Bachelor's degree from the Università della Svizzera Italiana (USI), Lugano, in Computer Science. The Bachelor's thesis work is: "Simulation of a Variant of DV/DRP in a Clustered Content-Based Network". I received my Master's degree from ETH Zurich in the Security Track with the thesis "Timed Data Deletion on Mobile Devices". My research interests are based around system and network security with a focus on mobile devices.

I'm the ITC (sysadmin) for the System Security Group and the Information Security Group.
