I am a telecommunications engineer and researcher in Valencia, working on cybersecurity, post-quantum cryptography and applied AI. I run FAVIT, the technology company I co-founded in 2020, and I manage European research projects at the SATRD Lab of the Universitat Politècnica de València.
My work connects applied research with systems that go into service. Today I focus on securing software, firmware and critical infrastructure, on moving connected devices to post-quantum cryptography, and on applying AI to security, surveillance and data. These lines grew out of earlier work on interoperable command and control for emergencies and on maritime and port security.
Since 2013 I have worked on R&D projects funded by the European Commission under FP7, H2020 and Horizon Europe. At FAVIT we turn that experience into products such as Q-SAFE, which protects devices and their firmware updates with post-quantum algorithms, and into projects such as RESILIAI, which combines AI and post-quantum cryptography.
I hold a PhD in Telecommunications, a master’s degree in Big Data Analytics and a degree in Telecommunications Engineering, all from UPV, and I am currently studying for the EADA–UOC Executive MBA.
What I work on
Cybersecurity
Continuous security assessment of software and hardware, cyber resilience and protection of critical infrastructure.
Post-quantum cryptography
Quantum-safe algorithms and firmware updates for connected and embedded devices.
Applied AI
Machine learning for vulnerability detection, acoustic vessel monitoring and the analysis of multimedia evidence.
News
FAVIT presented RESILIAI, an R&D project that combines artificial intelligence and post-quantum cryptography to secure software, firmware and device communications. It is funded by Red.es (C003/25-ED) and co-funded by the EU through the ERDF.
PORTIA, a large acoustic dataset recorded in port with AIS-grounded annotations for AI-based vessel monitoring, was published in Scientific Data. →
The ATHENA consortium met in Naples for its second plenary meeting. FAVIT works on secure software development and AI-based security services, and leads the project’s communication and dissemination.
SMAUG, the Horizon Europe project on maritime and port security coordinated by Indra, closed after three years with its final review in Madrid. →
We presented PRESERVE, a multi-layered counter-drone architecture against hostile drone swarms in public spaces, at EEITE 2026 (IEEE). →
ATHENA started. The Horizon Europe project builds an AI-driven framework for continuous security assessment of European software and hardware, and runs until September 2028.
