Research Interest

My primary research interest lies in applied cryptography and information security with a special emphasis on practice-oriented provable security. I feel fascinated by the the interplay of functionality, security and efficiency of cryptographic protocols. My interest includes (but is not limited to):

• Public Key Cryptography
• Identity-Based Cryptography
• Security Protocols for Cloud
• Pairing-Based Cryptography
• Quantum Safe Cryptography
