International Speakers

Xavier Boyen

Xavier Boyen obtained his PhD in Computer Science from Stanford University in 2002. He has published extensively in the top cryptography conferences on a range of topics including hash functions, biometric authentication and digital signatures. He is widely known as the inventor of several key algorithms and protocols in pairing-based cryptography. He is currently with Voltage Security Inc.

Andreas Enge

Andreas Enge obtained his PhD in mathematics at the University of Augsburg in 2000. He is currently vice-head of the joint research team TANC - Algorithmic Number Theory for Cryptology between INRIA and École polytechnique, and teaches informatics at all levels at École polytechnique. Andreas has published widely on algebraic curves and cryptology, including a book entitled Elliptic Curves and their Application to Cryptography.

Kenny Paterson

Kenny Paterson obtained a B.Sc. in 1990 from the University of Glasgow and a Ph.D. from the University of London in 1993, both in Mathematics. He was then a Royal Society Fellow at Institute at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology, Zurich, from 1993 to 1994. and a Lloyd's of London Tercentenary Foundation Research Fellow at Royal Holloway, University of London from 1994 to 1996. In 1996, he joined Hewlett-Packard Laboratories Bristol, becoming a project manager in 1999. He then joined the Information Security Group at Royal Holloway in 2001, becoming a Reader in 2002 and Professor in 2004. Together with one of his Ph.D. students, Kenny is the inventor of certificateless cryptography.

Michael Scott

Mike Scott has had a long term interest in the efficient implementation of cryptographic systems on a range of platforms, particularly elliptic curve based schemes. A more recent interest has been in pairing-based cryptography, where it is important to show that these can be implemented nearly as efficiently as the more traditional methods. Mike leads the security research group at Dublin City University. He is widely known for his work on generating pairing-friendly elliptic curves and also as developer of the lightning fast Miracl software library.
