Jiseung Kim

I am an Associate Professor in the Department of Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence at Jeonbuk National University (JBNU). I received my Ph.D. in Mathematical Sciences from Seoul National University, advised by Jung Hee Cheon. Before joining JBNU, I was a Research Fellow at the Korea Institute for Advanced Study (KIAS), hosted by Jeong Han Kim.

My research focuses on cryptography, with emphasis on:

Mathematical cryptanalysis: attacks on lattice-based and number-theoretic assumptions
Secure computation: threshold FHE, multi-party computation, private set operations

I am looking for motivated graduate students interested in cryptography. If you are interested, please contact me via email.
