Dan Boneh (* 1969 in Israel ) is an Israeli-American computer scientist and cryptologist.

Boneh received his PhD from Princeton University in 1996 with Richard J. Lipton (Studies in computational number theory with applications to cryptography). He is a professor at Stanford University . There he headed the group applied cryptography.

He works in the field of cryptology and computer security and developed new systems for Internet security (tcpcrypt), PwdHash for browsers and cryptographic watermarks. He dealt with the cryptanalysis of public key systems such as RSA , with the Decisional Diffie-Hellman problem and in 1995 with cryptanalysis with DNA computers (with Lipton).

Together with Matthew K. Franklin , he developed identity-based encryption mechanisms based on Weil pairing of elliptic curves (Franklin-Boneh method) in 2001 .

In 2003 he and David Brumley published a timing attack on OpenSSL and later on other web applications.

In 2009 he received the Gödel Prize with Franklin for Identity based encryption from the Weil pairing and in 2014 he received the ACM Infosys Award . He was a Packard and Sloan Research Fellow . He is co-founder of Voltage Security. In 2016 he was elected to the National Academy of Engineering and a Fellow of the Association for Computing Machinery .

Craig Gentry is one of his PhD students .
