The Computer Security and Industrial Cryptography (COSIC) group belongs to the Electrical Engineering Department at the KU Leuven. The COSIC team has about 100 researchers, including 9 professors, 6 researcher managers/experts, 20 postdoctoral researchers, 60 PhD students, 8 visitors, and 7 support staff. We are looking for a motivated candidate for a PhD position on practical fully homomorphic encryption. The student will be a part of the FINAL project team. The research will include the design and implementation of novel techniques and improvements for the FINAL scheme using advanced cryptographic techniques such as MPC, FHE, and Zero Knowledge Proofs with the explicit intention for industrial deployment. Responsibilities:
Design and implement efficient building blocks and protocols for the FINAL scheme.
Improve and optimize implementations for industrial deployment
Plan, design, and evaluate test cases with industry stakeholders
