Ludovic Barman
Security enthusiast / Software engineer
Hi, I'm Ludovic.
I am a 2nd-year PhD student at the EPFL, working on the topics of Privacy and Security with Jean-Pierre Hubaux and Bryan Ford. I have a strong interest in security and cryptography; I love to code, design solutions, and ultimately I am a technology enthusiast, curious about everything.
Feel free to drop me a line ! Both French and English are fine.
