Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolKostas Papagiannopoulos is an Assistant Professor at the University of Amsterdam with 13 years of experience in applied cryptography, side-channel and fault-injection analysis, and high-efficiency crypto implementations for AVR/ARM microcontrollers. He earned a PhD from Radboud University and combines deep academic research with industry experience at NXP, focusing on vulnerability analysis and practical countermeasures. His skill set spans low-level assembly (AVR/ARM/x86), VHDL, C/C++, and statistical machine learning for attack and detection techniques, enabling end-to-end hardware-software security work. He teaches hands-on courses in cryptographic implementation and side-channel analysis, translating cutting-edge research into practical training. Uncommonly, his background bridges microprobing-based chip analysis and system-level intrusion/malware detection, giving him a rare perspective across physical and software security.
