About Linus

I'm currently doing my PhD with my supervisor Kostas Papagiannopoulos, where I'm working on Side-Channel attacks, countermeasures against them, and the efficient and secure implementation of cryptographic algorithms on platforms like RISC-V.

When I'm not working, I love to go bouldering both indoors and outdoors or play (board) games with friends.
