The summer school “Securing Digital Transformation: Technologies and Strategies” organized by the SERICS Foundation – Spoke 9 and hosted at Sapienza University of Rome, offers PhD students a comprehensive overview of current research directions in cybersecurity and privacy.
The digital transformation of society brings unprecedented opportunities, but also new threats that require innovative and interdisciplinary solutions.The school will explore advanced topics such as fuzzing techniques for vulnerability discovery, multimedia forensics for content integrity, and federated learning frameworks with built-in security. Additional sessions will focus on privacy-preserving approaches in financial crime detection and secure, anonymous transactions in cryptocurrency systems.
By linking these domains to the broader challenge of securing complex digital infrastructures, the school aims to provide participants not only with solid theoretical and practical foundations, but also with valuable insights into the emerging trends and future directions of research in these key areas.
