    World-leaders in Cryptography: Gilles Brassard

    Gilles has been a full Professor at the Université de Montréal for more than 45 years. He laid the foundations of quantum cryptography at a time when no one could have predicted that the quantum information revolution would usher in a multi-billion-dollar industry, much less that the United Nations would proclaim 2025 to be the International Year of Quantum Science and Technology. He is also among the inventors of quantum teleportation, which is one of the most fundamental pillars of the theory of quantum information. In addition to this, his research focuses on areas of classical cryptography, privacy amplification, quantum entanglement distillation, quantum pseudo-telepathy, the classical simulation of quantum entanglement, amplitude amplification and he discovered the first lower bound on the power of quantum computers. Currently, his main interest lies in the foundations of quantum theory. In 1996, he was elected to the Royal Society of Canada. In 2000, he won the Prix Marie-Victorin - the highest scientific award of the government of Quebec - and in 2006, he was elected as a Fellow of the International Association for Cryptologic Research. In 2009, Gille was awarded the Gerhard Herzberg Canada Gold Medal for Science and Engineering, and in 2011 the Killam Prize in Natural Sciences, which are Canada's highest scientific honours. In 2013, Gilles was elected as a Fellow of the Royal Society of London. He was named as an Officer in the Order of Canada in 2013 and in the Ordre national du Québec in 2017. In 2018, he became the first Canadian to receive the Wolf Prize in Physics, which is considered second only to the Nobel Prize for Physics. In 2019, he received the Micius Quantum Prize and the BBVA Foundation Frontiers of Knowledge Award in Basic Sciences. In 2023, he was awarded the Breakthrough Prize in Fundamental Physics - the world’s largest science prize. Furthermore, he has been granted honorary doctorates including from ETH Zürich, and the University of Ottawa.

    World-leaders in Cryptography: Christof Paar

    Christof is a director at the Max Planck Institute for Security and Privacy in Bochum, Germany. He is also, a member of the German National Academy of Sciences Leopoldina and a Fellow of the IACR and IEEE. His research includes areas of light-weight cryptography, efficient cryptographic implementations, cryptographic Trojans and physical layer security. Christof is one of the co-creators of the PRESENT light-weight cipher and of the PRINCE block cipher,  In 2003, he founded Escrypt GmbH together with Willi Mann-heims,  and which was one of the first companies to focus on industrial data security. Since 2012, Escrypt has been part of Bosch.

    World-leaders in Cryptography: Victor S Miller

    Victor is a Senior Research Scientist at Nexus Laboratories. He received his PhD in Mathematics from Harvard University in 1975, and was an assistant professor at the University of Massachusetts Boston from 1973 to 1978. Victor has since worked for the IBM Research Center, The Institute for Defence Analyses in Princeton, Meta Platforms and SRI International. For his research, Victor has focused on areas of computational number theory, data compression and cryptography.  Along with Neal Koblitz, he was the co-creator of Elliptic Curve Cryptography, the inventor of Miller's algorithm and was a co-inventor of the LZW data compression method.  For the LZW invention, he was awarded the IEEE Millennium medal, and for his work on elliptic curve cryptography, he received the RSA Award for Excellence in Mathematics the Levchin Prize, and the Eduard Rhein Foundation Technology Award, along with being a member of the Information Systems Security Association Hall of Fame.
