Éric Brier

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Éric Brier is a French cryptographer whose surname has been given to the Brier number[1][2] and, acronymically with his colleagues Thomas Peyrin and Jacques Stern, the (since deprecated) Format-preserving encryption standard BPS, more formally known as FFP3.[3][4][5][6] He has worked for the French military procurement agency DGA, at Gemplus in the field of smart cards as a white-hat hacker, and similarly at Gemalto and Ingenico.[7] He has been employed at the Thales Group[8] since July 2020, working largely on quantum cryptography and NIST Post-Quantum Cryptography Standardization[9] As Chief Technology Officer his team's signature-signing scheme Falcon was selected as a standard under the aegis of NIST after a rigorous six-year competition[10][11][12][13]

His educational career is as follows:[14]

École Polytechnique Engineer (Physics, Mathematics)

1992—1995 Aix-Marseille University DEA (Discrete Mathematics)

2001—2002 ENSTA Paris Engineer (Physics, Computer Science)

1995—1997 Classe préparatoire Nancy 1990

The author of 48 papers,[15][16] Brier's h-index is 12.[17]

He is based in Gennevilliers, France.
