Overview

This post collects the video recording of the talk “Ransom Inside: collezionare i dati sul fenomeno del ransomware”, delivered by Pietro Melillo, CISO at Würth Italia, and Valerio Cammarota, Senior Software Engineer.

The session focuses on the importance of structured data collection in ransomware analysis. Rather than treating each incident as an isolated event, the talk explores how victim disclosures, technical indicators, contextual information, and longitudinal datasets can support a more evidence-based understanding of the ransomware ecosystem.

Main Topics

  • Collection and organization of ransomware-related data
  • Interpretation of public disclosure sources and open intelligence
  • Data quality as a key requirement for Cyber Threat Intelligence
  • Collaboration between cybersecurity research and software engineering
  • Use of structured datasets to observe trends, actors, and operational patterns

Context

The talk reflects an early step in a broader research and engineering path dedicated to the data-driven analysis of ransomware activity. It also highlights how technical collection pipelines can support both operational intelligence and academic research.

Speakers

  • Pietro Melillo — CISO, Würth Italia
  • Valerio Cammarota — Senior Software Engineer
