./About Me

Hey! My name is Dimitris Mouris (Δημήτρης Μούρης) and I am a PhD candidate in the Electrical & Computer Engineering Dept. at the University of Delaware under the supervision of Dr. Nektarios Tsoutsos. I hold my Master's and Bachelor's degrees in Computer Systems and Computer Science, respectively, from the Dept. of Informatics, University of Athens, Greece.


I like applied cryptography, computer security, and privacy, particularly in the areas of private and verifiable computation using techniques such as zero-knowledge proofs, homomorphic encryption, and secure multi-party computation. I am motivated by the impact of cryptography in contemporary society and on humanity.

./Open-Source Projects

liboqs-java: Java wrapper for liboqs. liboqs is an open source C library for quantum-resistant cryptographic algorithms. See more about liboqs at openquantumsafe.org.


CSAW 2021 Embedded Security Challenge (ESC). ESC is an educational, research-oriented tournament aimed at hacking into the hardware of embedded systems. ESC'2021 focused on side channel attacks (SCAs) and fault injection attacks (FIAs), which can be employed to exfiltrate private information from hardware.


CSAW 2020 Embedded Security Challenge (ESC). ESC'2020 focused on the security of Internet of Things (IoT) where contestants were tasked to hack the firmware of a wifi access point running on a RISC-V IoT platform.
