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 ...

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 ...

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 ...

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 ...

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 ...

The widespread encryption of data while stored on disk and communicated through the network — often called "at rest" and "in transit" — are critical security measures to protect business and personal ...
