Elad Barkan

First and foremost, I'm a Cryptographer, which means I like to hide and reveal things, and that I also like magic and tricks. Less than a year ago, I completed my Ph.D. in Computer Science at the Technion - Israeli Institute of Technology. My advisor is Prof. Eli Biham. If you are really interested, you can read my thesis online.

Researches the security of systems and protocols. Read about our group's work on the ciphertext-only cryptanalysis of GSM here.

I'm currently very interested in the revolution that WiFi is making in the world, the way it is to compete with cellular technology, and the new applications that are to be enabled through WiFi.

These days I'm the founder and CEO of Xiopea (still in stealth mode).

Look me up on google.
