Cecilia Pasquini is a researcher at the Center for Cybersecurity of the Fondazione Bruno Kessler (FBK), where she works with the Security and Trust research unit on media processing techniques for digital identity systems. She has also collaborated with the Technologies of Vision research unit on vision-based anti-counterfeiting techniques.
She has been affiliated to Futuro e Conoscenza srl, a joint venture between FBK and the Instituto Poligrafico e Zecca dello Stato (IPZS).
Prior to that, she has been a researcher at the Media Lab of the University of Trento (2020-2022) and a postdoctoral fellow at the Privacy and Security Lab with the Universität Innsbruck, Austria (2016-2019). She received her PhD in Information and Communication Technology from the University of Trento (2016) and her MS degree in Mathematics from the University of Ferrara (2012).
Since 2025, she holds the national scientific habilitation (ASN) as associate professor in Information Processing Systems (09/H1), Informatics (01/B1), and Telecommunications (09/F2).
Full CV (as of 25/11/2024)
Her research area lies at the intersection of information security and image/video processing, with focus on media security and forensics, synthetic media detection, adversarial machine learning, security of biometrics andidentity proofing systems. She has participated in several projects on these topics, such as METAfora (funded by MIMIT), UNCHAINED (funded by DARPA), TRUEBEES (funded by EU), PREMIER (funded by MIUR), ITBDIF (funded by Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft), J-MDS, NOTIS, ECMSF (funded by EUREGIO).
She has been Program Chair of ACM Workshop on Information Hiding & Multimedia Security 2023, co-organizer of the special session "Information security meets adversarial examples" at IEEE WIFS 2019 and General Co-Chair of the ACM Workshop on Information Hiding & Multimedia Security 2018.
She is member of the Technical Program Committee of several conferences and workshops (e.g., ACM IH&MMSec, IEEE WIFS, IEEE ICASSP, EUSIPCO), and serves as reviewer for many journals (e.g., IEEE TIFS, IEEE TCSVT, IEEE TIP, EURASIP JIS). She is an elected member of the IEEE Information Forensics and Security Technical Committee and of the Eurasip BForSec Technical Area Committee. She is an associate editor of the EURASIP Journal on Information Security.
She received the Top 10% paper award (IEEE International Workshop on Multimedia Signal Processing 2013) and the “F. Carassa” GTTI 2015 award for the best ongoing PhD.
She has been co-lecturer of the course "Trends and Applications of Computer Vision" (Master Program in Artificial Intelligence Systems, University of Trento).
