Hi there! đź‘‹
Hi, I am a PhD student at the Max Planck Institute for Security and Privacy (MPI-SP) in Bochum under the supervision of Peter Schwabe.
In 2023, I obtained my M.Sc. in IT-Security from Ruhr University Bochum. My thesis on “Dilithium on OpenTitan” was supervised by Peter Schwabe. The thesis is available here.
Research Interest
- Post-quantum cryptography
- Efficient implementations
- Side-channel security
