Biography

"A Doctoral Researcher at Tampere University (Finland), I contributed to OpenSSL for the first time in 2010, later I had the honor of becoming an OpenSSL Committer and I have been serving in the OpenSSL Technical Committee since 2019. Since the last election, I also serve as representative for Academics in the Business Advisory Committee at the OpenSSL Foundation, and in the newly formed Technical Advisory Committees at OpenSSL Foundation and Corporation. My research specializes in software and micro architecture side-channel analysis and the integration of modern cryptosystems (lately mainly PQC) in mainstream libraries such as OpenSSL. I am leading the efforts of Tampere University within the QUBIP Horizon Europe project to integrate PQC into OpenSSL, NSS, and Firefox using loadable modules."
