Academic Achievements
- Received a VIDI grant from the Dutch government in 2014 to work on new side-channel analysis methods and countermeasures for secure embedded devices. Senior member of IEEE and Editorial board member of ACM TECS since 2018. Served as a program co-chair for several international conferences, including CHES 2014, Africacrypt 2022, ACMWiSec 2021 (virtual), and ACNS 2024. Recent publications include 'A5/3 make or break: A massively parallel FPGA architecture for exhaustive key search' and 'BarraCUDA: GPUs do Leak DNN Weights'.
Research Experience
- Joined the Institute for Computing and Information Sciences (iCIS) at Radboud University, Netherlands in August 2009. Previously, a PostDoc at KU Leuven, Belgium. Worked as a cryptographer for Pijnenburg Securealink (later SafeNet B.V.) in The Netherlands.
Education
- PhD from KU Leuven, Belgium in 2005; Professional Doctorate in Engineering from TU Eindhoven, Netherlands in 2001.
Background
- Research interests: Applied cryptography and embedded systems security, particularly the security and privacy of embedded (crypto) devices such as smartcards, mobile phones, and IoT devices. Research areas include implementations of cryptography, side-channel and fault attacks, and curve-based cryptography (both classical and post-quantum). Recent research directions also include machine/deep learning for security and privacy.
Miscellany
- Adjunct professor at the Selmer Center of the University of Bergen, Norway. Involved in organizing various international academic events, such as AIHWS 2025, ASHES 2024, and others.
