PROJECTS

CAMPUS CYBER – WORKING GROUP ON CRYPTO ASSETS SECURITY

Since 2023, I have been an active member of Campus Cyber’s Working Group on Crypto Assets Security, contributing to the development of standardized security evaluation methodologies for blockchain infrastructure. As part of this collaborative effort with industry experts and institutional partners, I co-authored the “Methodology for Evaluation of Ethereum Nodes inspired by CSPN” (Certification de Sécurité de Premier Niveau), a comprehensive framework adapting France’s established security certification approach to distributed systems. To validate this methodology, our group conducted penetration testing campaigns based on the enumerated attack scenarios, with results forthcoming in an upcoming release. I presented these findings at the CONNECT2 event in June 2024, demonstrating how formal security evaluation frameworks can be applied to decentralized infrastructure. Additionally, I contributed to organizing and served as a jury member for the Banque de France Innovation Lab’s “Mission Smart” challenge, evaluating blockchain-based solutions for financial sector applications. This working group exemplifies how academic research, regulatory requirements, and industry practice can converge to strengthen the security posture of emerging technologies.

NASA SPACE APPS CHALLENGE

The NASA International Space Apps Challenge is the largest international hackathon, part of a NASA incubation program. It invites participants from around the world for a weekend to create computer applications. In 2020, it has gathered 26,000 participants from 150 countries and territories. This challenge aims to use data collected by satellites to solve real-world problems encountered on earth or in space.

The specificity is that the data from the five partner space agencies – NASA, CSA, CNES, ESA and JAXA – are open source, and therefore accessible to all. Considering their number, it is difficult to process them all: the Space Apps Challenge is an opportunity to stimulate contributions to science from all citizens, through diverse and varied challenges.

With others KRYPTOSPHERE members, we organized and hosted the 2020 and 2021 sessions of the NASA Space Apps Challenge in Paris.

OPEN CLIMATE COLLABATHON

In November 2019, along with my teammates from KRYPTOSPHERE, we have been invited to participate to the physical edition of the Collabathon at HEC. Then, during the hack weekend, I met a team of wonderful people based not only in Paris, but in different cities around the world through a collective work on the Consumer Disclosure prompt. When I saw the possible impact this project could have, I decided to come back during the Earth Day Dialogues 2020, and then met a wider panel of enthusiastic people ready to deepen the work proposed in November.
