The problem with encrypted data is that you must decrypt it in order to work with it. By doing so, it’s vulnerable to the very things you were trying to protect it from by encrypting it. There is a ...

What do you do when you need to perform computations on large data sets while preserving their confidentiality? In other words, you would like to gather analytics, for example, on user data, without ...

Data theft and data loss is an endemic problem on the internet. According to the firm Risk Based Security (via TechRepublic), 2020 alone saw 3,932 publicly disclosed breaches with 37 billion records ...

Organizations are starting to take an interest in homomorphic encryption, which allows computation to be performed directly on encrypted data without requiring access to a secret key. While the ...

Yesterday, Ars spoke with IBM Senior Research Scientist Flavio Bergamaschi about the company’s recent successful field trials of Fully Homomorphic Encryption. We suspect many of you will have the same ...

Craig Gentry, a cryptographer working at IBM’s Thomas Watson Research Center in the suburbs outside New York City, recently received a phone call that changed his life. His passion, an experimental ...

The history of homomorphic encryption stretches back to the late 1970s. Just a year after the RSA public-key scheme was developed, Ron Rivest, Len Adleman, and ...

Regardless of the strength of data’s encryption, more and more potential vulnerabilities surface in data security as more people are granted access to sensitive information. However, a relatively new ...

Modern cryptography is embedded in countless digital systems and components. It's an essential tool for keeping data secure and private. Yet one of the biggest limitations with cryptography, including ...

A technical paper titled “VLSI Design and FPGA Implementation of an NTT Hardware Accelerator for Homomorphic SEAL-Embedded Library” was published by researchers at University of Pisa. “Homomorphic ...
