Careers

I joined the ENISA in 2013 in the unit Secure infrastructure and services. I am security and resilience of communication Networks Officer and I work to foster security and resilience of European communications networks with particular focus to Critical Information Infrastructures and Internet infrastructure.

This job perfectly fits my academic background and previous experience: I hold a MSc in in Cybersecurity at Tallinn University of Technology, in the past I participated in the ICANN and IETF and I was the intranet manager of a major financial group in Italy for 9 years coordinating an internal network of over 6,000 employees.

My goal is to help EU institutions, Member States and Telco operators to secure Europe's information society. I travel a lot between Member States and I try to engage all interested actors in order to make the communications of all European citizens more resilient and secure. Before living in Athens, I have lived in Italy, Tallinn, Berlin and Chicago and definitely Athens is one of the best cities I have been for quality of life.

After being a Seconded National Expert to ENISA for one year in 2006, I've become fully dedicated to work for Europe full time. Since joining in 2008 I have written or edited many reports in the field of cyber security, notably on data breach notifications, supply chain integrity and electronic identities.

I appreciate ENISA for the opportunities it creates for collaboration with European and national administration as well as with big private companies at international level. I also enjoy the opportunities to socialise with the multi-national staff.

Privately, I take particular pleasure in the nature and scenery in Greece, which allow me to pursue my hobbies - mountain trekking and diving.

I joined ENISA in 2007. Having previously worked for the EMEA agency based in London I was happy to continue to be working within the European Agencies.I have enjoyed the challenges that ENISA has to offer in terms of professional development.

I particularly like working with colleagues from other European Member States, the diversity of languages and learning about different cultures and traditions. I have grown to love the island of Crete and its friendly and welcoming people. Three things I enjoy most working at the Agency? Knowledgeable and friendly colleagues, the local people, nature and food of Crete, and the knowledge that all together we make a difference.
