Curriculum

Mila Dalla Preda si occupa di:
- Studio e sviluppo di soluzioni software per la protezione della proprietà intellettuale e l'integrità del codice. In particolare tecniche di offuscamento del codice, tecniche di marcatura/firma del codice (sw watermarking) e tecniche di identificazione di violazioni del codice (tamper proofing)
- Studio e progettazione di strumenti automatici per il riconoscimento di comportamenti malevoli sfruttando proprietà semantiche del codice
- Studio e progettazione di strumenti automatici per l'analisi di similartà del codice seguendo sia approcci statici che dinamici. 
- Studio del comportamento di codici auto-modificanti, ovvero che cambiano durante l'esecuzione
