Eva Rodríguez

Eva Rodríguez is an Associate Professor in the Department of Network Engineering at Pompeu Fabra University's School of Engineering, specializing in cybersecurity, digital rights management, and IoT security. With over 50 publications since 2003, she has established herself as a leading researcher in secure network architectures and privacy-preserving technologies.

Her research focuses on applying machine learning techniques to cybersecurity challenges, particularly in mobile and IoT environments. Rodríguez has published extensively on deep learning for intrusion detection, privacy protection mechanisms, and security frameworks for next-generation networks (5G/6G). She has also made significant contributions to RISC-V processor security through the Horizon Europe Vitamin-V project.

Recent work shows a strong emphasis on federated learning approaches for privacy preservation in fog computing environments and the development of security management architectures for resilient wireless ecosystems. Her publication record demonstrates consistent leadership in both theoretical frameworks and practical implementations of security solutions.

Among her notable contributions are comprehensive surveys on deep learning techniques for mobile network security and machine learning methods for IoT privacy protection, which have become important references in these rapidly evolving fields.

As a research supervisor, she has mentored several doctoral students including Norma Gutiérrez and Beatriz Otero, who now appear as co-authors on her recent publications. Her collaborative work extends across multiple European research projects, demonstrating strong integration within the international cybersecurity research community.
