French startup Zama has raised $73mn to commercialise the “holy grail” of cryptography: fully homomorphic encryption (FHE). Conceptually simple but practically complex, FHE enables computations on ...

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 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 ...

As companies scramble for tougher shields against genAI risks, homomorphic encryption steps into the spotlight, bringing a unique superpower: it can crunch encrypted data without ever cracking it open ...

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 ...

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 ...

Data encryption startup Vaultree Ltd. said today that it has released and open-sourced elements of its data encryption technology stack that permit operations to be performed on encrypted data without ...

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 ...

Pervasive encryption that protects data not just in transit and at rest but in use — thus freeing companies of the fear of data breaches — has long been a dream of business executives, IT teams, and ...
