S. Stor developed advanced cryptographic signing and verification features for the Cosmian/kms repository, focusing on RFC 6979-compliant workflows and robust elliptic curve support. Using Rust, they implemented deterministic signing for both raw and digest data, expanded compatibility to include K256 and P-256 curves, and addressed edge-case bugs in RSASSA-PSS handling. Their work included comprehensive test automation and dependency management, ensuring correctness and reliability across cryptographic operations. By improving error handling, padding, and cross-curve interoperability, S. Stor enhanced the security and auditability of backend systems. The depth of their contributions reflects strong backend development and cryptography expertise.
