Mentor and research co-author since my first undergraduate year
Recommendation for graduate admission · 2026
“Having mentored him through several complex engineering projects over the years, I have witnessed his growth into an exceptional programmer with a broad technical profile and a strong aptitude for research. One of his most significant contributions was in the field of cybersecurity, where he designed and deployed multi-agent systems based on the Wazuh platform. Through his optimizations, he successfully reduced incident response time from 4 hours to just 12 minutes. In addition to his cybersecurity expertise, Mohamad demonstrated remarkable versatility in hardware and robotics. He architected software for a Fleet Management system for vehicles with proprietary hardware components, successfully handling the complexities of low-level integration.”
