Articles
This is going to contain links to some of the articles I've written on the web in various periods of my online life. They may contain real articles about Security Research or infrastructure or development, or how-to's or useful SQL Queries and Tools and scripts for System Center Operations Manager; some are translations to italian of some english security white papers or guides; they might be just rants or normal blog posts.
I collect them here to let them be found more easily, hoping that someone might find them interesting. Always keep in mind the period in which they are written, as my mind could – and probably has – changed on a variety of topics, with time!
