Job Description

Your role

The successful candidate will join the APSIA Group (Applied Security and Information Assurance), led by Dr. Peter B. Roenne. The APSIA group has a strong research record on the design, analysis, modelling and implementation of security protocols with classical, post-quantum, and quantum cryptography. For further information, you may refer to https://www.uni.lu/snt-en/research-groups/apsia.



The candidate will pursue a doctorate in computer science with a focus on the migration to Post-Quantum Cryptography (PQC) while collaborating with the Ministry for Digitalization in Luxembourg on a joint project. The project aims to provide guidance on the transformation of applications relying on classical cryptography, prone to attacks from quantum computers, to post-quantum cryptography. Key challenges are secure implementations of PQC, their integration into protocols, defining and proving s...
