Welcome to the official repository for my personal portfolio website. This project is a digital space where I showcase my skills, experiences, and projects.
The primary goal of this portfolio is to provide a comprehensive overview of my professional journey. It serves as a platform to highlight the work I’ve done, including various projects hosted on GitHub. In this portfolio, I share the milestones that have shaped my career, such as the completion of my Bachelor's thesis, which focused on decentralized exchanges (DEX), and the journey that led me to pursue a Master’s degree in Cybersecurity. One of the key achievements featured is my qualification for the CyberChallenge.IT 2024, a prestigious national cybersecurity competition. This competition represents a significant accomplishment in my career, reflecting my dedication and expertise in the field of cybersecurity.
This website is currently in BETA and will undergo further enhancements. In future versions, it will be self-hosted on a decentralized domain using the Ethereum Name Service (ENS) and stored on the InterPlanetary File System (IPFS). This will ensure greater resilience, privacy, and security for the content, aligning with my passion for decentralized technologies.
- Frontend: React, TypeScript, SCSS, Vite
- Animations: Framer Motion
- Hosting: (To be self-hosted in the future)
- Decentralized Storage: (IPFS in future versions)
- Decentralized Domain: (ENS .eth domain in future versions)
In the "Experiences" section of this portfolio you can see all my most important professional experiences.
- CyberChallenge.IT 2024: National cybersecurity competition that I followed and faced the national competition.
- Blockchain Developer: 1 year as a Blockchain Developer.
In the "Projects" section of the site, you will find detailed descriptions of some of my most important projects carried out, especially during the Master's degree period:
- Zero-Knowledge of Exploit: My MSc Thesis project. This project is a Rust-based toolkit for proving Ethereum smart contract exploits using Zero-Knowledge Proofs.
- Modbus2Chain: An IoT project integrating Modbus TCP protocol with blockchain.
- bytethecookies-nfts: NFT collection project for the CTF By The Cookies team of which I am actively part.
- FVAB_EmotionGait: A project on emotion recognition using LSTM networks.
- PT-Vulnerable-VM: I set up a Virtual Machine "vulnerable by design".
- Decentralized Exchange - DEFI: A DEX developed as part of my thesis on smart contracts and DEFI.
- UnisaEAT: A big project developed during the three-year degree period.
Each project is hosted on GitHub, where you can explore the code, read what I have written, and see the development history.
Ethereum Name Service (ENS) provides a secure and decentralized way to map human-readable names like alessandro-cavaliere.eth to machine-readable identifiers such as Ethereum addresses or IPFS content hashes. This system ensures that my website remains accessible and resistant to censorship while reflecting my commitment to the principles of decentralization, very dear to me.
The InterPlanetary File System (IPFS) is a distributed file system that allows for the storage and sharing of data across a decentralized network. Unlike traditional hosting methods, IPFS makes the website resilient to failures, as content is stored across multiple nodes, ensuring availability even if some nodes go offline. This aligns with the decentralized nature of the blockchain and enhances the security and permanence of my portfolio. We don't want our provider to crash. 😉
This portfolio is now fully live and hosted on IPFS and ENS, embracing a decentralized architecture. You can expect continuous updates and new features as I keep building. 🌐✨
