In chess,
as in security,

I am an ethical hacker with more than 25 years of experience in IT and information security. I protect companies and professionals from digital threats through tailored consultancy, security audits and training. I created KEYBOKY, an offline password management system, and wrote the book ‘Sicurezza informatica per professionisti’ (in Italian). My mission is to make the digital world safer for everyone.

It means using advanced security skills to find and fix vulnerabilities before criminals can exploit them. I always work with explicit authorisation, within strict ethical and legal rules. My goal is to strengthen digital defences, not to break them.

Because I believe security is a right, not a privilege. After seeing too many systems fail and too many companies suffer serious damage for lack of proper protection, I decided to dedicate my work to preventing that. My passion for computing, together with the wish to protect people and businesses, is what drew me to security in the first place.

I offer information security consultancy through POWERB, my firm, and free do-it-yourself tools, which you will find on the ‘Free resources’ page. I created KEYBOKY, a paper-based method for managing passwords. With my book I want to build real awareness, not the kind of fear that pushes people to buy devices that end up badly configured, creating a false sense of security.

KEYBOKY is a fully offline password management system that I created after 25 years in the field. It uses a paper-based method that combines mathematical randomness with physical separation: the credentials are not on any device, so malware or a remote attack has nothing to steal. It is not an app or a cloud service: it is an analogue system for people who want strong security without depending on digital technology.

The first step is understanding your weak points. You can start with my free resources for a self-assessment. Remember: security is not a product you buy, but a process you build with awareness and the right tools.

Start with the free tools on the ‘Free resources’ page: in a few minutes you can see where you are exposed. Then pick the most urgent problem: if it is passwords, start with KEYBOKY; if it is knowing whether you are being targeted, start with CYBETOWER. Each product works on its own: you add the others when you need them.

Because what matters is who holds your data, not only where it is stored. The US CLOUD Act allows US authorities to compel a US provider to hand over data, even when the servers are in Europe or in Switzerland. With a Swiss provider that has no US parent company and no US presence, the data stays under Swiss law, which protects it through the Federal Act on Data Protection (FADP). Knowing which law applies to your data is the first step to controlling it.

No. They are designed for SMEs and professionals who cannot afford an IT department, but cannot afford to be vulnerable either. The complexity stays behind a simple interface: if you can use email and a browser, you can use my products.
