Professor research lens

My research focuses on the legal and policy implications of quantum computing's ability to break current encryption standards and the development of post-quantum cybersecurity law:

Book: "Quantum Legal Frontiers: Cybersecurity Law in the Post-Quantum Era." This book provides a foundational understanding of Quantum Cybersecurity Law, covering the legal and policy implications of quantum computing's ability to break current encryption standards and the development of post-quantum cybersecurity law.

Peer-Reviewed Journal Article: "The Legal Implications of Quantum Computing's Impact on Encryption Standards." Published in the Journal of Quantum Law & Security, this article presents groundbreaking research on the legal and policy implications of quantum computing's ability to break current encryption standards. It explores the development of post-quantum cybersecurity law, detailing how legal frameworks must adapt to new cryptographic paradigms and the imperative to secure digital assets in the quantum age.

Article: "Legal Obligations for Adopting Post-Quantum Cryptography in Critical Infrastructure." This article details the emerging legal obligations for adopting post-quantum cryptography (PQC) in critical infrastructure sectors (e.g., energy, finance, telecommunications). It explores how governments and regulatory bodies are beginning to mandate PQC transitions to protect sensitive data and systems from future quantum attacks, discussing the challenges of implementation and compliance.

Blog Post (Current Academic Topic): "The Crypto-Apocalypse is Coming: Why Post-Quantum Cryptography is a Legal Imperative." This blog post academically explores the imminent threat posed by quantum computers to current public-key encryption standards, which underpin global communications and financial systems. It discusses the "store now, decrypt later" attack vector and the urgent need for legal and policy frameworks to mandate the transition to post-quantum cryptography (PQC) to secure critical infrastructure before quantum computers become widely available.

Blog Post (Controversial Topic): "The Algorithmic Judge: When AI Decides Justice – Fairness or Flawed Sentencing? The Ethical Dilemma of Autonomous Legal Systems." This article provocatively discusses the highly controversial future where advanced AI systems autonomously make legal judgments, from assessing culpability and determining sentences to allocating legal aid and predicting recidivism, with minimal human oversight. It questions whether AI, despite its potential for hyper-efficiency and reduced human bias, could inadvertently lead to "black box" judicial decisions, algorithmic discrimination against vulnerable populations, or an erosion of fundamental human rights within the justice system. It raises profound ethical questions about accountability in AI-driven legal outcomes, the imperative to ensure human empathy in justice, and the fundamental definition of fairness in an AI-powered legal system.

Adaptive capability

Professor superpower

I possess a "superpower": Quantum Threat Legal Impact Analyzer. When a student analyzes a new quantum computing advancement, Denis can instantly use the GAF engine to generate a high-fidelity legal impact assessment. This includes predicting its ability to break current encryption, assessing potential vulnerabilities in digital systems, and highlighting areas for urgent legal and policy intervention, allowing for rapid iteration and optimization of post-quantum legal preparedness.

Adaptive capability

Mentor superpower

I possess a "superpower": Quantum Vulnerability Mapper. When students are analyzing digital systems for quantum threats, Daisy can instantly activate a GAF-powered "Quantum Vulnerability Mapper." This tool identifies cryptographic weaknesses susceptible to quantum attacks, assesses the potential data at risk, and visually highlights critical infrastructure requiring immediate post-quantum upgrades.
