Clarisse Feio began her Integrated Master's in Electrical and Computer Engineering at the Nova School of Science and Technology (FCT NOVA) in 2015. After completing the bachelor's phase of the program in 2018 (the first three years of the five-year course), she advanced to the master's phase, focusing on Telecommunications, Digital Systems, and Robotics In May 2018, she started a yearlong internship at the Museum of Art, Architecture, and Technology, where she worked as a tour guide, explaining the process of electricity production to groups of various sizes and ages. From September 2019 to June 2020 she served as Teacher Assistant (TA) in the Microprocessor Programming course at FCT NOVA, teaching new students about programming basics. Later, from March 2020 until June 2020 she served again as TA but involved in the Telecommunication Systems course. In January 2021, while still finishing her master’s degree, she started working as a Cybersecurity Consultant at Ernst & Young Portugal performing cybersecurity audits and assessments, where she would continue for 1 year and 9 months. She concluded and defended her dissertation in Electrical and Computer Engineering in June 2021, with a grade of 18/20. From the dissertation resulted one paper published in a journal as co-author. In September 2021, looking to expand her knowledge in the cybersecurity field, she enrolled in the Master’s degree in Information Security and Cyberspace Law, which is a multidisciplinary degree between three schools: Universidade de Lisboa - Instituto Superior Técnico, Universidade de Lisboa - Faculdade de Direito, and Escola Naval. This degree combines knowledge of engineering, law, and information security standards and best practices. In October of 2022, she started a new position as Researcher at INOV, where she also developed her second dissertation in the field of information security, specifically developing a new DevSecOps framework, including a software development pipeline, set of security activities, and list of recommended open source security tools. In December of 2023, she finished her Master's degree in Information Security and Cyberspace Law with a dissertation grade of 19/20 and an overall grade of 17/20. From this dissertation, one paper was accepted in the DevSecOpsRO 2024, Austria. Due to the high grades obtained, she was included in the Instituto Superior Técnico’s Academic Merit Board as having obtained Academic Excellence. Currently she is attending a PhD program in Electrical and Computer Engineering FCT NOVA and is integrated in as a Master Research Fellow in the project “Distributed Access Design for Cell-less Smart 6G Networks” running at the host institution – Instituto de Telecomunicações. Her main areas of interest are information security, system's security and privacy, and telecommunications. Apart from the PhD courses attended and successfully completed, she was actively involved throughout 2024 in several research activities, particularly focused on enhancing the security of signaling protocols used in telecommunications and computer networks. These efforts culminated in a research paper that was submitted to IEEE Access and is currently under review.
