Sujoy Sinha Roy

Ass.Prof. PhD

Secure Systems, Assistant Professor

Dr. Sujoy Sinha Roy is renowned for his expertise in the secure and efficient implementation of cryptographic algorithms across both hardware and software platforms. He possesses a unique talent for comprehending the intricate mathematics behind novel cryptographic algorithms while simultaneously developing original hardware architectures for their execution. Dr. Sinha Roy's research has primarily focused on the field of post-quantum cryptography. Among his notable contributions in this area is the design of the SABER key encapsulation mechanism, which achieved recognition as one of the top four finalists in the NIST's Post Quantum Cryptography (PQC) standardization project. He has also proposed comprehensive implementations of PQC, encompassing hardware, software, embedded systems, and measures to protect against side-channel vulnerabilities. In addition to his work in post-quantum cryptography, Dr. Sinha Roy has devoted his research efforts to the development of hardware acceleration techniques for accelerating the speed of Fully Homomorphic Encryption (FHE). He has co-authored several papers on this subject, which have been presented at prestigious venues. His contributions to the field continue to be highly regarded by his peers and colleagues. He received the PhD degree in 2017 with 'Summa cum laude with congratulations from the examination committee' from COSIC, KU Leuven, Belgium. His doctoral thesis was awarded the 'IBM Innovation Award 2018' that recognizes an outstanding doctoral thesis in informatics. Before joining TU Graz, he worked as an assistant professor at the University of Birmingham's Security and Privacy group, from Sep 2018 to Nov 2020.
