The National Science Foundation (NSF) has once again recognized research excellence in the Department of Computer Science at Stony Brook University by awarding Omkant Pandey a Faculty Early CAREER Development grant.
Pandey’s CAREER research focuses on how to secure our computer systems against an adversary equipped with quantum computing technology. Quantum computers can be much faster than traditional computers and can break almost all the cryptographic systems in deployment today that are used to secure data on the internet.
