Short Bio

Jonas Krautter received his PhD with distinction from Karlsruhe Institute of Technology in 2022 for his thesis "Analysis and Mitigation of Remote Side-Channel and Fault Attacks on the Electrical Level". He is a postdoctoral researcher at the CDNC group of Prof. Mehdi B. Tahoori at Karlsruhe Institute of Technology, working on hardware security. His focus is on fault and side-channel attacks, especially in FPGA-based systems.
