Anthony Crisci - Cybersecurity Portfolio

About Me

I'm a University of Connecticut (UConn) Storrs Campus student pursuing a degree in Computer Science with a concentration on Cybersecurity. My journey in computer science started when my first ever childhood laptop got hacked and had about 1000 different virus on it. From there I basically made it my life's goal to never have that happen again.

My passion lies at the intersection of cybersecurity and software development. I believe that security should be built into systems from the ground up, not added as an afterthought.

As a student leader, I've been actively involved in UConn Cyber as a Co-Founder and 3 Year President, where I've hosted weekly workshops, cyber competitions, and community events focused on technology and security awareness.

In my free time, I participate in Capture The Flag (CTF) competitions, code new projects, and experiment with new technologies to broaden my skill set.
