Jacques Stern (born 21 August 1949) is a cryptographer, currently a professor at the École Normale Supérieure, where he is Director of the Computer Science Laboratory. He received the 2006 CNRS Gold medal.[1][2] His notable work includes the cryptanalysis of numerous encryption and signature schemes, the design of the Pointcheval–Stern signature algorithm, the Naccache–Stern cryptosystem and Naccache–Stern knapsack cryptosystem, and the block ciphers CS-Cipher, DFC, and xmx. He also contributed to the cryptanalysis of the SFLASH signature scheme.[3]

Awards

gollark: I would much prefer a giant plastic/metal cuboid with some holes in it over the bespoke designs of today if it was fairly modular.

gollark: Even if it costs half as much and you can actually replace bits?

gollark: It does seem like houses are overcomplicated in various ways, and poorly optimised for maintenance.

gollark: General robotics is still not very advanced compared to other AI things.

gollark: Prefabricated houses or whatever.
