I'm Jorge Sancho, a techie from Zaragoza (Spain), whose interest is easily captured by anything related to networks and security. During my PhD at the University of Zaragoza, I worked with widely used authorization standards, such as OAuth 2.0, and modern Secure Multiparty Computation (SMC) protocols to enable privacy-preserving L7 firewalling. During this time, I taught Network Management and Network and Service Security at the university, and I was also professor of the Secure Architecture module in the Advanced Cybersecurity Course aimed at the Joint Cyber Defense Command (MCCD) of the Spanish Army.

Currently, I work in the security engineering team at Canonical. As the security lead for the snap ecosystem, I strive to make Snaps the most secure way to consume applications in Linux environments by enabling the capabilities of the Linux kernel by default and pursuing a Snap store free of vulnerabilities and malware. My responsibilities include providing publishers with information about vulnerabilities affecting their Snaps, maintaining the review tools for the Snap store, and reviewing security-relevant changes to Snapd.
