Originally from Djemila-Setif in Algeria, Amine moved to La Rochelle-France in December 2020 to complete his Ph.D. thesis at the L3i laboratory. 

Amine earned his Ph.D. in July 2024 from La Rochelle University with a dissertation titled “Advancing Blockchain-based Reputation Systems: Enhancing Effectiveness, Privacy Preservation, and Scalability”.  

He received both his Bachelor’s (2018) and Master’s (2020) degrees in Networks and Distributed Systems from Ferhat Abbas University, Setif 1. His broader research interests include trust and privacy in decentralized intelligent systems, as well as distributed systems such as distributed ledger technologies—particularly blockchain and its applications in identity and access management, decentralized federated learning, the Internet of Things, and cyber-physical systems.

Amine was a postdoctoral researcher at La Rochelle University from September 2024 to September 2025, working on decentralized trustworthy Battery data management within the EU-funded OPEVA project.

Amine is currently a Postdoctoral Researcher at Telecom SudParis, working on the ANR-funded CKRISP project — Cross-level Knowledge Representation and Causal Reasoning for Intelligent Security Prediction. His research focuses on simulating realistic cyberattacks to test and strengthen the resilience of information systems. This involves leveraging and integrating various AI techniques to generate graph-based cybersecurity data for more accurate modeling of attacker behavior.
