Office: Room 307, CSE Main Building, IIT Kharagpur.
I work as a faculty in the CSE department at IIT Kharagpur. Before, I worked as a postdoc jointly with Eike Kiltz (Ruhr-Universität Bochum) and Giulio Malavolta (Max Planck Institute for Security and Privacy). Prior to that, I also worked as a postdoc with Sebastian Faust (TU Darmstadt). Earlier, I received my PhD in CSE from IIT Madras and thereafter worked briefly as a research staff at CCD@IITM. During PhD, I was very fortunate to be advised by Shweta Agrawal. Feel free to email for my detailed CV.
Research Interests
My research interests are broadly in the theory and applications of public-key cryptography with a focus on computing on encrypted/authenticated data and building tools to enable distributed trust.
