Disclaimer: This page refers to former member of the group. Validity or accuracy of the following information is thus not guaranteed in any way.
I was a post-doctoral researcher in the Crypto Group of the UCL working in 2011-2012 and a former PhD student on statistical cryptanalyses in the SECRET team from INRIA Paris-Rocquencourt.
I now work for DGA-MI in France.
