[edit] 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).
[edit] 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.
[edit] 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)
[edit] 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]
[edit] 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
[edit] Industry
In 2000, Boneh co-founded Ingrian Networks with Roy Thiele-Sardiña and Rajeev Chawla.
In 2002, Boneh co-founded Voltage Security.[7]
