My name is Salvatore Fresta and I am based in Catania, Italy. I am the Chief Operating Officer and Co-Founder of SqueezeMind.
My professional interests lie primarily in information technology, with a strong focus on IT security. I am currently pursuing advanced studies in this field at the University of Milan. From my early academic years, I consistently extended my learning beyond formal coursework, dedicating time to specialized literature and developing my own software solutions. This curiosity and drive to deepen my knowledge soon became a hallmark of my journey.
I have a particular passion for the discovery and analysis of security flaws. My expertise includes the auditing and exploitation of web applications, while also covering areas such as networking and systems security. Over time, I have identified vulnerabilities in both closed and open-source applications.
Alongside my work in security, I have gained extensive experience in software development, which led me to the role of senior developer. My career path later evolved towards senior management, where I developed strong leadership and organizational skills.
In recent years, I have acquired significant expertise in the online betting sector, contributing to the development of gaming and affiliate platforms that fully comply with responsible gaming regulations. These projects implemented rigorous safety measures, such as advanced encryption and decentralized backup solutions.
My professional background also extends to SEO and digital marketing strategies, enabling me to bridge technology and business with efficiency and vision.
Beyond technology, I am passionate about sports, literature, music, and socializing. I am also an enthusiast of craft beer, dedicating time to creating homemade beers and mead.
