Mateusz Leśniak
Research interests: cryptanalysis of stream ciphers, quantum annealing
In 2023, Mateusz Leśniak completed his studies in cryptology and cybersecurity at the Military University of Technology, specializing in cryptographic systems. At present, he is a doctoral candidate at the same institution, where his research focuses on the cryptanalysis of stream ciphers using unconventional methods. His scientific interests also encompass quantum annealing and post-quantum cryptography.
Outside of his academic pursuits, Mateusz dedicates his free time to an active lifestyle, participating in running events and engaging in individual training.
