Massimo Durante

About

Massimo Durante is a researcher whose work spans the critical intersection of law, technology, and manufacturing. His primary research areas include privacy and data protection in the Internet of Things (IoT), the legal and ethical challenges of artificial intelligence in outer space, and advanced manufacturing processes. Durante’s major contributions are twofold: he has identified four key legal challenges posed by IoT, particularly around data sharing and control, offering a foundational framework for privacy law in an increasingly connected world. He has also pioneered the examination of normative challenges for AI in outer space, arguing for a realignment of terrestrial legal standards to address the privatization of space activities. His work on IoT privacy has garnered 21 citations, while his space law paper has quickly accumulated 20 citations since 2023, reflecting its timely impact. Additionally, Durante has contributed to materials science with studies on cold spray deposition on composites and robotic layup of fibrous preforms for liquid composite molding, demonstrating his versatility. His research is essential reading for scholars navigating the legal and ethical dimensions of emerging technologies.
