I am currently a Postdoctoral Researcher at CISPA Helmholtz Center for Information Security, hosted by Prof. Nico Döttling. My research focuses on public-key cryptography and quantum cryptography.
Previously, I was a Postdoctoral Fellow in the Department of Computer Science and Engineering, Indian Institute of Technology Delhi, where I worked under the guidance of Prof. Venkata Koppula.
I completed my PhD (as a Prime Minister’s Research Fellow) and MTech degree under the guidance of Prof. Manindra Agrawal in the Department of Computer Science and Engineering, Indian Institute of Technology, Kanpur. During that time, I was actively working on the cryptanalysis of symmetric-key cryptosystems and variants of the subset-sum problem.
My Erdős number is 3 (Me -> Antoine Joux -> Andrew M. Odlyzko -> Paul Erdős).
