Education
| Timeline | Degree & major | Institution | Details & thesis |
|---|---|---|---|
| 10.2025 - 7.2026 Completed | Cyber Science - Cybersecurity Management | Silesian University of Technology, NASK | Grade: 5 - A My final thesis focused on management strategy for application-level encryption and key lifecycle in IT infrastructure, compliant with the NIS2 directive, in the face of post-quantum threats (ML-KEM, ML-DSA). |
| 3.2024 - 9.2025 Completed | Computer Science | Silesian University of Technology | Grade: 5 (4.82) - A My master’s thesis focused on the analysis of a discrete wavelet transform without dyadic subsampling, augmented with a novel subband weight estimator, for the purpose of edge detection in digital images heavily corrupted by high-frequency noise.

Independent research
| Timeline | Research topic | Methodology & details |
|---|---|---|
| 3.2026 - current In process | Steganography in complex wavelet domains | Research on leveraging fixed-point DTCWT, QAM modulation, and multimodal techniques (transient detection) for data hiding in image signals. |
| 4.2026 - 7.2026 Completed | Hybrid PQC-ZTNA gateway performance study (NIST FIPS 203/204) | Development of a hybrid post-quantum Zero Trust architecture and execution of performance benchmarking using M/G/1 and ECDF/KDE statistical analysis to quantify cryptographic overhead and provide recommendations for optimizing K8s HPA scaling thresholds.
