Matthew Franklin is recognized among Jewish contributors to Technology & Engineering — Co-invented identity-based encryption with Dan Boneh; Gödel Prize (2013)
Franklin, with Dan Boneh, built the first practical identity-based encryption scheme in 2001, allowing any string — such as an email address — to serve as a public key. An American cryptographer, he is a professor at the University of California, Davis and shared the 2013 Gödel Prize; he is included in Jinfo.org's listing of Jewish computer scientists, though public biographies do not further document this background. The Boneh–Franklin scheme is widely used in modern cryptography.
