Guide to Applications of Homomorphic Encryption

  • Miran Kim | Seoul National University, Korea

Homomorphic encryption is an encryption function which permits encrypted data to be computed without decryption. It is considered as a solution for protecting privacy information in present situations such as cloud computing and machine communication. In this talk, I explain the basic arithmetics under homomorphic encryption: equality and comparison. Then I show how to apply to real world problems: private database query processing and homomorphic computation of (approximate) edit distance for genomic analysis.
