ILIA ILIASHENKO (Илья Ильяшенко)

I am a research engineer at Ciphermode Labs. My research interests lie at the intersection of cryptography and computational number theory focusing on secure computation methods. More precisely, I study homomorphic encryption schemes based on Euclidean lattices and their application to data privacy.
