Wikipedia description:
Ben-Zion "Benny" Chor (Hebrew: בני חור) (23 December 1956 – 10 June 2021) was an Israeli computer scientist. He was known for his research in cryptography, including traitor tracing, randomness extractors, private information retrieval, the security level and single-bit security of RSA encryption, and secret sharing. Beyond cryptography, he also made important contributions in distributed shared-memory consensus and in the discovery of patterns in gene expression data.
