UNIVERSITY EDUCATION

DOCTORATE - PHD (pending...)

I plan to conduct my doctoral studies by performing an analysis of current Advanced Persistent Threats, outlining their infrastructure, possible creation, maintenance, and detection.

MASTER IN CYBERSECURITY

I undertook official postgraduate/master´s studies through the Carlos III University of Madrid. During the course, I was a delegate and obtained outstanding grades. As my Master´s thesis, I carried out a research project to demonstrate the ability to track and identify users using only WiFi wireless networks

I was elected delegate by my peers and created a telegram channel, a telegram bot and a discord channel with the aim of mitigating the effects of the COVID pandemic. In this way, through the channel, I informed about the most relevant news as well as exams and activities to be handed in. Through the Discord server, students were allowed to have a library room with library sounds, as well as to organise themselves in groups to do their work through the written and voice channels.

COMPUTER ENGINEERING DEGREE

I did my undergraduate studies at the Complutense University of Madrid. As my final thesis, I developed a control and attack cloud based on probes capable of detecting cyber-attacks and performing cyber-attacks, all remotely controlled with its encryption layer to obfuscate traffic.

During the course of my career, I helped found the student associations LibreLabUCM and AEPD-UCM, focusing on computer science and journalism. I was also president of LibreLabUCM. I was also a member of the Big Data association SCIData. I have been a delegate in the last years of the Degree, coordinator of departments, representative in the Department Council, member of the Student Delegation of the Faculty of Computer Science (DAFI) and representative of Computer Engineering in Spain (RITSI). I carried out many activities, such as workshops, competitions and lectures..

      ASSOCIATIONS and GROUPS

      BEING COFOUNDER and ORGANIZER

      Association LibreLabUCM
      History
      LibreLabUCM is an association of students of the Faculty of Computer Science of the Complutense University of Madrid. It was born with the vocation to use and promote free software and learn with it both inside and outside the university. But they are not only interested in free software, they are also interested in free hardware, free technologies, free culture, open or free knowledge, and everything related to them.

      Its creation came about after a lecture given by Richard Stallman at the Faculty of Computer Science of the Complutense University of Madrid. The students, after it, passed a list to see people interested in the creation of a Free Software association. During its first year, which coincides with my first year of my degree, the topic of cybersecurity was included and culminated with the realization of more than 40 workshops on this topic and the creation of the first Hacking group of the Complutense University of Madrid.
      Objectives
      The objective of LibreLabUCM is to serve as a meeting place for students, professors and other people interested in free technologies and everything that may arise from them. Among the activities they carry out are the development of free software projects, the realization of courses of various technologies, the maintenance of a server to provide services both inside and outside the association, and the dissemination of courses, job offers, or any other information that has to do with the interests of the associates. Although they are a very young association, they are open to new proposals and any new idea is always welcome.
      Hacking Group
      The Hacking Group of the Complutense University of Madrid, known as FDIst, was conceived as an initiative of Álvaro, Pablo and Daniel through LibreLabUCM. The main goal of the group was to reach out to those with the same concerns who could not find their cybersecurity corner at the university. They wanted to establish an accessible resource for those students who shared their passion for cybersecurity.

      Initially, the group was called LLUst, which is short for "LibreLabUCM Security Team." However, over time and with the desire to expand and reach out to more students in the faculty, the group changed its name to FDIst. This change was the result of an internal vote among LibreLabUCM members and was intended to encompass the entire faculty.

      FDIst has stood out for the organization of numerous workshops, covering a wide range of topics within the cybersecurity field. In addition, the group has carried out significant audit work in collaboration with CERN as part of a Whitehack program. This collaboration began after the group, supported by a professor and LibreLabUCM, started auditing the Complutense University of Madrid using Whitehack techniques.

      AEPD Student Association
      The Association of Sports Journalism Students (AEPD) of the Complutense University of Madrid was created with the intention of counteracting the negative thoughts that tend to arise among students of Journalism, especially those interested in Sports Journalism. The AEPD was founded with the aim of promoting learning among young people and bringing them closer to the professional world.

      Since its creation, the association has grown to more than two hundred members, many of whom have gained internships in the media, and has appointed Vicente del Bosque, former Spain national soccer coach and former Real Madrid manager, as its ambassador.

      One of the main objectives was the fight against job insecurity, focusing on the problem of unpaid internships. Under the slogan "we don´t want precarious interns," the association has worked to change this situation and ensure that students get the experience and fair remuneration they deserve for their work. The association was not registered in the year of the proposal, but was continued by president Eduardo Cornago.

      BEING A STUDENT REPRESENTATIVE

      Student representative at a national level

      RITSI Association
      RITSI (Reunión de Estudiantes de Ingenierías Técnicas y Superiores en Informática) is a statewide association founded in 1992 that aims to coordinate and represent the entire student body of Computer Engineering through its delegations or councils. One of its main goals is to fight for the equalization of the professions of Computer Engineering with the rest of engineering, and to defend the rights and interests of the students of these disciplines.

      One of RITSI´s significant collaborations was with LibreLabUCM, a non-profit association of the Faculty of Computer Science of the Complutense University of Madrid. Together, they created a platform of computer security challenges called "TRINITY", which covers different fields, such as Basic, GNU/Linux, Web Hacking, Steganography, Cryptography, Reversing, Anonymity, Programming, Misc, among others.

      TThe role of student representatives is essential to ensure that student interests are taken into account in discussions and decisions at the state level and at all educational levels. I was part of RITSI´s student leadership as a representative of the Computer Engineering program at the Complutense University of Madrid. Student representatives work to ensure that the concerns and needs of students are heard and addressed, actively promoting the equalization of the Computer Engineering and Computer Engineering professions with the rest of engineering. This student representation is one of the most important functions of RITSI, which strives to defend the rights and interests of Computer Engineering students.

      UNIVERSITY LEVEL

      UNIVERSITY COMPLUTENSE OF MADRID
      The Complutense University of Madrid provided me with the opportunity to take on various leadership and representation roles. During my last courses in the Computer Engineering degree, I had the honor of serving as a delegate, a position that allowed me to represent my fellow students and work for them. I also took on the responsibility of being a department coordinator and representative on the Department Council, which allowed me to have significant insight into the direction of my academic department.

      In addition, I had the opportunity to be part of the Faculty of Informatics Alumni Delegation (DAFI). This position allowed me to collaborate closely with other computer science students and participate in decision making that affected our faculty. At the national level, I had the privilege of being the representative of Computer Engineering in Spain through the Computer Engineering Student Representatives Network (RITSI), where I was able to use my voice and experience to serve computer science students across the country.

      Not only did I take on leadership and representation roles, but I also became actively involved in organizing and running events. I participated in events such as AULA, a major educational event, and contributed in the organization of Welcome Day for new students. Always present was my commitment to the university community and my desire to make the university a welcoming, pleasant and useful place for all students.

      Finally, I was involved in the creation of two student associations, LibreLabUCM and AEPD-UCM, and I had the honor of being the president of one of them. These associations provided a space for students to come together and work on projects and activities related to computer science and journalism.
      UNIVERSITY CARLOS III OF MADRID
      I completed my Master´s degree in Cybersecurity at the Carlos III University of Madrid, an experience that not only enriched my academic knowledge, but also my leadership and community management skills. I was elected delegate of my course, which gave me the opportunity to serve as a representative of my fellow students. This role allowed me to learn how to listen and address the needs of others effectively.

      During my time as a delegate, I created a Telegram channel that became the main focus of information for all students in the course. Every day, the channel provided important updates and notifications, from exam dates and practicals to news and updates about COVID-19. It was also a place for encouragement and motivation, regularly sharing videos and encouraging messages to keep my fellow students spirits up.

      In response to the challenges presented by the pandemic, I set up a Discord server to facilitate group study and maintain connection among students. The server included several study rooms and even a library noise room for those who missed that environment. This initiative proved to be a valuable resource during these difficult times, allowing students to keep up with their studies and feel part of a community even from a distance.

      In addition, I had the privilege of giving a presentation on cybersecurity under the title "Red Team: a hardware edition" during one of our seminars. This experience allowed me to share my passion and knowledge in the field of cybersecurity with my peers, and also reinforced my ability to communicate complex concepts clearly and effectively.
