معرفی
Dr. Daniel Gardham is a Lecturer at the University of Surrey, affiliated with the Surrey Centre for Cyber Security and the School of Computer Science and Electronic Engineering. He teaches modules such as Privacy Enhancing Technologies (COM3030) and Data Structures & Algorithms (COM1029). His research focuses on applied cryptography, including privacy-preserving techniques, authentication protocols, and post-quantum cryptography using lattice-based methods. Previously, he was a postdoctoral researcher at Royal Holloway, University of London, and earned his PhD from the University of Surrey in 2021 under Mark Manulis, exploring attribute-based signatures in classical and post-quantum contexts.
Education: PhD in Computer Science (University of Surrey, 2021), MMath in Mathematics (University of Bath, 2017).
Research interests include developing cryptographic protocols for secure communication, post-quantum security solutions, and enhancing user privacy through authentication mechanisms. His recent work addresses phishing awareness for older adults and oblivious PRFs leveraging homomorphic encryption.
Publications span topics like asynchronous key generation, hierarchical attribute-based signatures, and biometric authentication systems. He contributes to cybersecurity through interdisciplinary research, bridging theoretical cryptography with practical applications.
Labs/Teams: Active in the Surrey Centre for Cyber Security and the Computer Science Research Centre, advancing cryptographic innovation and cybersecurity education.
