About

Hi, I’m Mattia Perfumo. I’m from Milan and based in Stockholm, where I’m studying for an MSc in Cybersecurity at KTH Royal Institute of Technology.

I’m interested in cloud infrastructure, virtualization, and cloud security. On this blog, I share projects, technical notes, and CTF write-ups.

Cloud security at MongoDB

From June to August 2026, I worked as a Cloud Security Intern in MongoDB’s Enterprise Security organization in Dublin. I designed and deployed the company-wide Amazon SES architecture and its IAM authorization model, and built the infrastructure with Terraform.

Education, research, and teaching

I completed my BSc in Computer Systems and Networks Security at the University of Milan in July 2025. I started my MSc at KTH in August 2025, with completion expected in July 2027.

My research work includes contributions to C-WDL, a choreography-based workflow language for security and privacy in cloud-edge environments, and a microservices platform built with Docker and Kubernetes.

From February to July 2025, I taught web and network security for CyberChallenge.IT.

Community

I co-founded K!nd4SUS, the cybersecurity team at the University of Milan. My work with the team has included CTF training, Kubernetes platforms, and organizing international events.
