Career

I am currently a Postdoctoral researcher at IRISA in the CAPSULE team.

Previously, I was a Postdoctoral researcher at XLIM. I defended my thesis, "Cryptography based on rank metric error correcting codes and applications" in december 2020, under the supervision of Philippe Gaborit and Gilles Zémor.

Research activities

My main research activity consists in designing and studying the security of cryptographic schemes based on error-correcting codes with a focus on the rank metric.

I am a team member of the following submissions to the NIST Post-Quantum Standardization process :

• BIKE
• HQC
