Cédric Fournet serves as Senior Principal Research Manager at Microsoft Research in Cambridge, UK, where he leads the Constructive Security research team. He also directs the Secure Distributed Computations project at the MSR-INRIA Joint Center in collaboration with INRIA Paris's Prosecco team. With over two decades of experience since joining Microsoft Research in 1998, Fournet maintains active collaborations across academic and industrial research communities. His educational background includes graduation from École Polytechnique in 1992, followed by a year working on deductive databases at BULL. He obtained a second engineering degree from École Nationale des Ponts et Chaussées in 1995 and completed his PhD in computer science at INRIA Rocquencourt, where he applied concurrency theory to distributed programming through a variant of the pi calculus. Fournet's research spans multiple interconnected domains in computer security and programming languages. His primary focus involves building, verifying, and deploying secure components for critical infrastructure, most notably through the Everest project which aims to create verified replacements for HTTPS components like miTLS. His work integrates formal methods with practical security concerns, addressing challenges in cryptographically-verifiable computing, TLS security, secure cloud outsourcing using trusted hardware (SGX, TPM), side-channel resistance, and information-flow security. A unifying thread throughout his career is the application of dependent types, particularly through the F* programming language, to create provably secure systems. Analysis of his recent publications reveals a consistent trajectory toward verified security implementations across diverse platforms and protocols. His work has evolved from theoretical foundations in cryptographic protocol verification to practical, production-ready systems like EverCrypt and EverParse. The research demonstrates increasing sophistication in handling real-world constraints while maintaining formal guarantees, with recent work addressing microarchitectural security, confidential computing in AI accelerators, and media provenance for combating synthetic media. CCS Distinguished Paper Award (2024) for Principled Microarchitectural Isolation on Cloud CPUs Best Paper Award Nominee (2023) for Confidential Consortium Framework Distinguished Paper Award (2015) for A Messy State of the Union: Taming the Composite State Machines of TLS As leader of the Constructive Security team at Microsoft Research, Fournet oversees multiple significant research initiatives with substantial funding from both internal Microsoft resources and external collaborations. His team's work on Everest has received sustained support for developing verified cryptographic implementations, while the MSR-INRIA Joint Center provides a framework for international collaboration on secure distributed systems. The team maintains strong industry partnerships that facilitate the transition of research prototypes into deployed systems. The Constructive Security research team operates at the intersection of theory and practice, maintaining close connections with both the INRIA Prosecco team in Paris and various Microsoft product groups. Their work environment emphasizes formal verification techniques applied to real-world security challenges, with particular focus on creating tools and frameworks (like F*) that enable building systems with strong security guarantees. The team's approach combines deep theoretical insights with practical engineering considerations to produce solutions that are both formally verified and deployable in production environments.
