Miss Joanne Woodage

I graduated from the University of Manchester with a first-class MMath Mathematics (Hons) degree in 2013, before joining the second CDT cohort in September 2014. I am interested in all aspects of applied and, in particular, theoretical cryptography. My research is focussed in the area of provable security, and I have recently been looking at pseudorandom number generation, and cryptography in the face of mass surveillance. I spent July - November 2016 at Cornell Tech visiting Prof Tom Ristenpart, and working on typo-tolerant password authentication and distribution sensitive cryptography.
