~$ cat about.md

I'm Chief Security Officer at GripID. I design the cryptographic architecture of biometric identity products for regulated environments: government, enterprise, banking. We work on identity and digital identity: products that live in embedded and IoT security, at the intersection of advanced electronics and highly regulated cryptographic environments. My work covers authentication and devices that stay trustworthy over their entire lifecycle. I defend it where it matters: by certifying our products. I come from research, with a PhD in Computer Science on blockchain-based security for the IoT, still active through publications. And I teach at engineering schools and universities across France.

~$ cat teaching.md

I teach what I practice: cybersecurity, blockchain, computer networks, operating systems, databases and information systems architecture. Lectures, hands-on labs and project supervision, in French or English.

Program directors and academic teams: I'm open to guest lectures and new teaching collaborations. And if your need goes beyond what I cover, I have a solid network of trainers to recommend. Get in touch.
