I'm unable to find any substantial coverage to demonstrate that the subject is notable per WP:BIO. The majority of the sources cited are not directly related to this person work (general newspaper article, computer security conference website). The fact that he had a PhD and published few papers like every Phd student does not make him notable. Some of its works or iteration of the same paper are listed multiple times. The majority of the article was written by phony account created just for this task (explained in the article's talk page). The article is not neutral and overstate most of this person work ("Duchene popularized computer hacking").

This article is pure publicity and self promotion, probably written by Fabien Duchene himself or one of his friend.
