His research explores the systems challenges of applied cryptography, with an emphasis on using cryptography to build secure systems that preserve the privacy of their users. In addition to designing and analyzing privacy-enhancing systems, Professor Henry is interested in practical matters like implementing and working toward the deployment of such systems, as well as more theoretical matters like devising number-theoretic attacks against non-standard cryptographic assumptions and developing new models and theories to understand just how efficient “heavy-weight” cryptographic primitives can be. He received his Math (2010) and Ph.D. (2014) from the University of Waterloo, where he held a Vanier Canada Graduate Scholarship, the most prestigious graduate scholarship in Canada.
