Gracias por tomarte el tiempo para leer mi biografía, lo cual demuestra tu interés en el maravilloso mundo de las finanzas y la contabilidad de costes.

Permíteme una breve introducción: He trabajado como CFO y controller durante mucho tiempo, y soy apasionado de la técnica financiera y de costes. Disfruto analizando procesos, y esta pasión me ha llevado a impartir clases en distintas universidades, donde he aprendido tanto de mis alumnos como espero que ellos hayan aprendido algo de mí.

The laboratory's activities are focused on the development, testing, and integration of domestic solutions in the areas of operating systems, cybersecurity, infrastructure platforms, and artificial intelligence.

We are currently implementing a comprehensive project aimed at integrating three key domestic operating systems—Astra Linux, Aurora, and Katya OS (REChain)—into a single multi-platform ecosystem.
The project's objective is to create a universal secure environment that ensures application compatibility, support for corporate and government scenarios, and unification of management, monitoring, and security tools.

As part of this project, we conduct multi-level testing and comparative studies, including:
assessing the compatibility and resilience of systems when operating in distributed infrastructures;
analysis of performance and energy efficiency on various hardware configurations;
testing mandatory and discretionary access control tools, as well as data protection models;
Compatibility testing with domestic hardware platforms, including ICL, Aquarius, IRU, and others.

The project is open, scientific, applied, and integrative in nature, aimed at strengthening domestic technological independence and developing ecosystems of compatible domestic solutions.
