Personal profile

Curriculum

Niclas Hedam is an accomplished and dedicated PhD Fellow at the IT University of Copenhagen. He is pursuing a PhD in computer science, specialising in data systems. His research interests lie at the intersection of security and data systems. He aims to understand and address the challenges of guaranteeing the availability, integrity and confidentiality of modern data systems and computational storage.

Niclas completed his undergraduate education by earning a Bachelor's degree in Software Development in 2019. He then went on to pursue a Master's degree in Computer Science in 2022, where he specialised in the field of information security.

Before his current role as a PhD Fellow, Niclas worked at ITU as a Research Assistant. This experience provided him with valuable opportunities to collaborate with esteemed researchers and gain a thorough understanding of the various challenges and opportunities in the field of data systems.

Currently, Niclas is working in the context of DAPHNE to explore and experiment with eBPF-based offload on computational storage in large-scale data pipelines. This project aims to improve the efficiency and scalability of data pipelines while guaranteeing security and integrity. Niclas's contribution to the project is notable; recently, Niclas created the first publicly described computational storage device that runs eBPF.
