Cankun Zhao's Blogs

Cankun Zhao

I was born in Shandong, China, in 1997. I earned my Bachelor's degree from Tsinghua University in 2019 and have since been pursuing a Ph.D. at the School of Integrated Circuits, Tsinghua University.

Research Interests

My research interests include:

  • Post-quantum cryptography (PQC)
  • Lightweight cryptography (LWC)
  • Side-channel attacks and countermeasures
  • Fault injection attacks and countermeasures
  • Side-channel leakage assessment
  • Digital circuit design
