Me in brief:

Software Engineer and PhD Candidate within the Security and Systems Team at the LRE (Laboratoire de Recherche de l’EPITA) since November 2025. My research focuses on developing multi-domain deception strategies to counteract Advanced Persistent Threats (APTs) in Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS).

Short Bio

I am a Software Engineer with an academic background from Algeria and France. I graduated as a Software Engineer from the Université des Sciences et de la Technologie Houari Boumedienne (USTHB, Algiers) in 2002 and earned my Master’s degree in Computer Science from the University of Savoie Mont Blanc in 2003.

Currently, I am pursuing my Ph.D. through an international collaboration between EPITA (LRE/Sorbonne University), the DEVCOM research laboratory (USA), and the University of Ngaoundéré (Cameroon). My doctoral work investigates how multi-domain deception can be used to mislead sophisticated attackers targeting critical infrastructure and Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS).
