Canteaut earned a diploma in engineering from ENSTA Paris in 1993.[1] She completed her doctorate at Pierre and Marie Curie University in 1996, with the dissertation Attaques de cryptosystèmes à mots de poids faible et construction de fonctions t-résilientes supervised by Paul Camion [fr].[2]
She is currently the chair of the INRIA Evaluation Committee,[3] and of the FSE steering committee.[4] She was the scientific leader of the INRIA team SECRET between 2007 and 2019.
