About

Overview

Maria Krotsiani is a Lecturer in Cloud Computing at City, University of London and a member of the Centre of Adaptive Computing Systems (CeNACS). She holds a BSc degree in Digital Systems (University of Piraeus), an MSc degree in Business System Analysis and Design (City, University of London) and a PhD in Computer Science (City, University of London). Prior to her current position, she has also worked as Business System Analyst and Developer at Eurobank in Greece, and during her PhD studies as a Researcher at the Austrian Institute of Technology (AIT) in Vienna.

Her research interests focus on cyber security, cloud computing and Big-Data Analytics, validation techniques based on formal methods and probabilistic checks, as well as continuous runtime certification of cyber systems.

She has been involved in several research projects including the EU Horizon 2020 projects CYBERSURE (CYBER Security InSURancE, 2017-20) and TOREADOR (Trustworthy mOdel-awaRE Analytics Data platfORm, 2016-2018); and the EU F7 projects CUMULUS (Certification Infrastructure for Multi-Layer Cloud Services, 2012- 2015) and SECCRIT (SEcure Cloud computing for CRitical infrastructure IT, 2013-2016) .
