Dr Michał Wroński

Research interests: post-quantum cryptography, quantum cryptanalysis, public-key cryptography

Michał Wroński completed his studies in computer science at the Military University of Technology in 2011, specializing in cryptography. He earned his Ph.D. degree in 2018. Up until January 2023, he served in the military.

His passion lies in the field of cryptography. He is particularly interested in elliptic curves as well as quantum and post-quantum cryptography. He is currently focusing on the application of “quantum annealing” in cryptanalysis. His most significant achievement is the first practical implementation of solving the discrete logarithm problem using quantum methods over a small finite field.
Michał has about 30 publications. Many students have studied under his tutelage, some of whom have won prizes for their work, both in local and national competitions. In addition, Michał actively supports the realisation of doctoral dissertations.

In 2024, he was awarded the prestigious Ministry of Science scholarship for outstanding young scientists.
