Dan Boneh
Dan Boneh ( /boʊˈneɪ/; Hebrew: דן בונה) is a Professor of Computer Science and Electrical Engineering at Stanford University. He is a well-known researcher in the areas of applied cryptography and computer security.
Education
Born in Israel in 1969, Boneh obtained his Ph.D. in Computer Science from Princeton University in 1996 (under the supervision of Richard J. Lipton).
Research
Boneh is one of the principal contributors to the development of pairing-based cryptography from the Weil Pairing, along with Dr. Matt Franklin of the University of California at Davis.
Cryptography
Some of his notable achievements in cryptography include:
- 2010 He was involved in designing tcpcrypt, TCP extensions for transport-level security[1][2]
- 2005 The first broadcast encryption system with full collusion resistance (with Craig Gentry and Brent Waters)
- 2003 A timing attack on OpenSSL (with David Brumley)
- 2001 An efficient identity-based encryption system (with Matt Franklin) based on the Weil pairing.[3]
- 1999 Cryptanalysis of RSA when the private key is less than N0.292 (with Glenn Durfee)
- 1997 Fault-based cryptanalysis of public-key systems (with Richard J. Lipton and Richard DeMillo)
- 1995 Collusion resistant fingerprinting codes for digital data (with James Shaw)
- 1995 Cryptanalysis using a DNA computer (with Christopher Dunworth and Richard J. Lipton)
Computer Security
Some of his notable contributions in computer security include:
- 2007 Exposing private information by timing web applications.[4]
- 2005 PwdHash a browser extension that transparently produces a different password for each site[5][6]
Awards
Boneh has received a number of awards, including the following:
- The Packard Award
- The Alfred P. Sloan Award
- the Terman Award
- The RSA Award
Industry
In 2000, Boneh co-founded Ingrian Networks with Roy Thiele-Sardiña and Rajeev Chawla.
In 2002, Boneh co-founded Voltage Security.[7]
