Marco Squarcina
Univ.Ass. Dott.ric.
My name is Marco Squarcina, I’m a postdoctoral researcher at TU Wien. My research interests focus on web security, but I’m passionate about computer security and hacking in its broadest sense. I play and organise CTFs under the nickname “lavish” as a member of WE_0WN_Y0U, mhackeroni and formerly c00kies. Before relocating to Austria I served as a coach for the national cybersecurity team in Italy to compete in the ENISA European Cyber Security Challenge.
