Mirco Marchetti

Mirco Marchetti is an Associate Professor at the University of Modena and Reggio Emilia, affiliated with the Department of Engineering 'Enzo Ferrari'. He specializes in cybersecurity, network security, and automotive systems. His teaching responsibilities include courses on cybersecurity fundamentals, computer networks, operating systems, and automotive cyber defense.

Research interests focus on intrusion detection systems (IDS), vehicular networks (VANETs), machine learning applications in cybersecurity, and automotive cybersecurity. He has contributed to projects like HackCar (automotive attack/defense testbed) and RealCAN (real-time CAN bus analysis tools). His work also explores adversarial attacks on ML-based systems and secure communication protocols for industrial and vehicular systems.

Recent publications emphasize automotive cybersecurity (e.g., Mercedes-Benz infotainment system analysis, CAN bus anomaly detection), ML robustness against adversarial attacks, and zero-trust architectures. He collaborates with the SECloud research group (secloud.ing.unimore.it) and uses experimental platforms like Software-Defined Radios for security evaluations.

Teaching responsibilities span multiple academic programs including Master's degrees in Computer Engineering and Artificial Intelligence Engineering. Courses emphasize practical skills in Linux/Unix administration, network configuration, and embedded system security.
