About & Research Background
My professional career in software development began in 1977, providing a long-term perspective on the architectural evolution of distributed systems, security engineering, and Artificial Intelligence.
I am an independent researcher based in Brazil. My current work explores the convergence of Agentic AI, Multi-Agent Systems, Edge AI, Zero-Trust Architecture, AI Security, Governance, Risk and Compliance (GRC), and Security-by-Design.
Open Research Philosophy
Security and governance should be treated as fundamental architectural properties of autonomous AI systems rather than controls added post-deployment. My work follows an open research and reproducible engineering approach, combining conceptual architectures, formal specifications, threat models, security invariants, executable evidence, and reference implementations.
