Michele Guerra, PhD
Hey there! I’m Michele, a passionate researcher specializing in mobile user privacy and security, with a PhD in Computer Science from the University of Molise, Italy.
In July 2024, I successfully defended my dissertation, "Enhancing Mobile User Privacy through a Context-Aware Permission Model," earning the highest praise from the academic committee. My PhD journey has been marked by the publication of multiple research papers, engaging presentations at international conferences, and active contributions as a reviewer in the research community. I’ve also had the privilege of co-supervising over 20 students on their thesis projects and participating in several funded research initiatives.
As of March 2025, I am a Postdoctoral Associate at NYU Abu Dhabi, working in the CSP Lab under Prof. Christina Pöpper, focusing on mobile security and AI-driven threat detection.
I will always be grateful for the mentorship of Prof. Fausto Fasano and Prof. Rocco Oliveto, whose guidance has been instrumental in shaping my research and professional growth.
🚀 Excited for what’s ahead—let’s make mobile security smarter, safer, and more user-centric!
