About Me

I am a cryptography engineer. I mainly work on white-box cryptography and privacy-preserving cryptography.

I was cryptography engineering at CryptoExperts in Paris from 2017 to 2021. Before that, I was a senior software engineer at Baidu in Beijing from 2015 to 2017.

I co-organized the 2nd edition and the 3rd edition of the WhibOx contest, which are the CTF events of CHES 2019 and CHES 2021.

I am also a member of the following program committees:

Education

I obtained my Ph.D. degree in cryptography in 2020 from the University of Luxembourg, and from the University Paris 8 under the supervision of Jean-Sébastien CORON, Sihem MESNAGER, Pascal PAILLIER, and Matthieu RIVAIN. The defense of my thesis entitled On the practical security of white-box cryptography, took place in June 24, 2020. Please find more information in jwa.ng/thesis.

Before that, I received my master degrees in computer science from the University of Luxembourg and Shandong University in 2015.

Before that, I received my bachelor degree in software engineering from Shandong University in 2012.
