Preparation of a PhD thesis in relation with the industry (CIFRE fellowship) whose objective is to evaluate and control the security and anonymity levels of the Snowpack network. The work leads to interactions with the teams of the Snowpack start-up, the Computer Science Laboratory of Paris VI (LIP6 - Sorbonne University) and the Laboratory for Information, Networking and Communication Sciences (LINCS).

Snowpack is developing an overlay network without trusted third-party which allows data to be exchanged between a client and a server in an anonymous and secure way. How does it work? Each IP packet is transformed into complementary snowflakes that do not allow the sender, the recipient and the transported data to be identified in the event of an attack (e.g. network analysis). To increase the level of security and anonymity, the technology allows these different complementary snowflakes to be passed through different network interfaces. This is fully in line with today's consumer hardware such as multi-SIM smartphones, recent computers with multiple network interfaces or multi-WAN routers. More information at snowpack.eu.During this period, I produced documentation on the technical product, worked on the calculation of the Snowpack network latency estimation (QoS), implemented and integrated network security tests, participated in research activities within the joint Snowpack/CEA laboratory and implemented a proof of concept of a CEA (French Alternative Energies and Atomic Energy Commission) patent.

Development of a Python tool for extracting and exploiting data from the nuclear sector designed to improve feedback: • continuation of a project, study of algorithms (textual analysis and image processing) and redefinition of the software architecture of the tool; • liaison with EDF-DI information system members to retrieve raw data.Along with this project, during the first Covid-19 lockdown period: production of a technology watch report which proposes solutions to facilitate remote working.Project management on follow-up documents related to the UK Hinkley Point C nuclear power plant, the French power plants and the EPR 2 project for the electrical control/command division (15 engineers).
