CRYPTOEXPERTS SAS

Their core work

CryptoExperts is a Paris-based SME specializing in advanced cryptography, with deep expertise in homomorphic encryption and applied cryptographic technologies. They provide cryptographic research, design, and consulting services — translating academic breakthroughs in encryption into practical, deployable solutions. Their H2020 involvement spans both applied research (homomorphic encryption for computation on encrypted data) and community-building efforts in European cryptology.

What they specialise in

How they've shifted over time

All three of CryptoExperts' H2020 projects began in 2015, making it impossible to identify a temporal shift in focus from the available data. Their portfolio shows a consistent and concentrated focus on cryptography — from foundational research in homomorphic encryption to coordination and training activities across the European cryptology community. No keyword data was available to track thematic evolution.

Their focus on homomorphic encryption positioned them in a field that has grown significantly in demand for privacy-preserving cloud computing and secure AI, suggesting continued relevance in post-quantum and confidential computing topics.

How they like to work

CryptoExperts operates exclusively as a participant — never leading consortia but contributing specialized cryptographic expertise. With 18 unique partners across 7 countries from just 3 projects, they engage in mid-to-large consortia and connect with a diverse set of institutions. This pattern suggests they are sought after as a domain specialist rather than a project management entity.

CryptoExperts has collaborated with 18 distinct partners across 7 countries, reflecting strong integration into the European cryptography research community. Their network likely includes leading universities and research institutes active in the ECRYPT ecosystem.

What sets them apart

CryptoExperts occupies a rare niche as a private SME with deep academic-grade cryptographic expertise — a bridge between university research labs and industry needs for advanced encryption. Their combination of homomorphic encryption research (HEAT) and involvement in the flagship European cryptology networks (ECRYPT) gives them both technical depth and community credibility. For consortium builders needing a commercial partner with serious cryptography credentials, they are a distinctive choice.

Highlights from their portfolio

• HEAT
  Largest funding share (EUR 643K) and focused on homomorphic encryption — one of the most commercially promising areas in modern cryptography.
• ECRYPT-NET
  Marie Curie training network in advanced cryptographic technologies, indicating CryptoExperts' role in shaping the next generation of European cryptographers.
