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 ...

Homomorphic encryption is a method of performing calculations on encrypted information without decrypting it first. Why do you care about some arcane computer math? Because it could make cloud ...

A startup named Ravel claims breakthroughs in fully homomorphic encryption, a hotly-pursued method for analyzing encrypted data without ever decrypting it. Now imagine another approach: instead of ...

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 ...

Co-authored with FHE inventor Craig Gentry; simultaneous acceptance of both scheme and bootstrapping papers marks exceptionally rare academic feat; Hundreds-fold speedup in matrix ...

Helical founder Eric Hess discusses how homomorphic encryption could change the way data is transferred and processed securely. While advances in data analytics have enabled businesses to gain ...

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 ...

This story is part of The Privacy Divide, a series that explores the fault lines and disparities–economic, cultural, philosophical–that have developed around ...

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 ...

The phrase Homomorphic Encryption might sound heavy, specially if you are hearing it for the first time, but its whole purpose is to simplify your database and information solutions. Let’s try to ...
