Thi...We propose an unbounded fully homomorphic encryption scheme, i.e. a scheme that allows one to compute on encrypted data for any desired functions without needing to decrypt the data or knowing the decryption keys. This is a rational solution to an old problem proposed by Rivest, Adleman, and Dertouzos [1] in 1978, and to some new problems that appeared in Peikert [2] as open questions 10 and open questions 11 a few years ago. Our scheme is completely different from the breakthrough work [3] of Gentry in 2009. Gentry’s bootstrapping technique constructs a fully homomorphic encryption (FHE) scheme from a somewhat homomorphic one that is powerful enough to evaluate its own decryption function. To date, it remains the only known way of obtaining unbounded FHE. Our construction of an unbounded FHE scheme is straightforward and can handle unbounded homomorphic computation on any refreshed ciphertexts without bootstrapping transformation technique.展开更多

By studying the scheme and Coron’s public key compression technique, a scheme which is able to encrypt n bits plaintext once was obtained. The scheme improved the efficiency of the decrypting party and increased the number of encrypting parties, so it meets the needs of cloud computing better. The security of the scheme is based on the approximate GCD problem and the sparse-subset sum problem.展开更多

文摘As data analysis often incurs significant communication and computational costs,these tasks are increasingly outsourced to cloud computing platforms.However,this introduces privacy concerns,as sensitive data must be transmitted to and processed by untrusted parties.To address this,fully homomorphic encryption(FHE)has emerged as a promising solution for privacy-preserving Machine-Learning-as-a-Service(MLaaS),enabling computation on encrypted data without revealing the plaintext.Nevertheless,FHE remains computationally expensive.As a result,approximate homomorphic encryption(AHE)schemes,such as CKKS,have attracted attention due to their efficiency.In our previous work,we proposed RP-OKC,a CKKS-based clustering scheme implemented via TenSEAL.However,errors inherent to CKKS operations—termed CKKS-errors—can affect the accuracy of the result after decryption.Since these errors can be mitigated through post-decryption rounding,we propose a data pre-scaling technique to increase the number of significant digits and reduce CKKS-errors.Furthermore,we introduce an Operation-Error-Estimation(OEE)table that quantifies upper-bound error estimates for various CKKS operations.This table enables error-aware decryption correction,ensuring alignment between encrypted and plaintext results.We validate our method on K-means clustering using the Kaggle Customer Segmentation dataset.Experimental results confirm that the proposed scheme enhances the accuracy and reliability of privacy-preserving data analysis in cloud environments.
文摘This paper proposes a strategy for machine learning in the ciphertext domain.The data to be trained in the linear regression equation is encrypted by SHE homomorphic encryption,and then trained in the ciphertext domain.At the same time,it is guaranteed that the error of the training results between the ciphertext domain and the plaintext domain is in a controllable range.After the training,the ciphertext can be decrypted and restored to the original plaintext training data.

文摘Due to the rapid advancement of information technology,data has emerged as the core resource driving decision-making and innovation across all industries.As the foundation of artificial intelligence,machine learning(ML)has expanded its applications into intelligent recommendation systems,autonomous driving,medical diagnosis,and financial risk assessment.However,it relies on massive datasets,which contain sensitive personal information.Consequently,Privacy-Preserving Machine Learning(PPML)has become a critical research direction.To address the challenges of efficiency and accuracy in encrypted data computation within PPML,Homomorphic Encryption(HE)technology is a crucial solution,owing to its capability to facilitate computations on encrypted data.However,the integration of machine learning and homomorphic encryption technologies faces multiple challenges.Against this backdrop,this paper reviews homomorphic encryption technologies,with a focus on the advantages of the Cheon-Kim-Kim-Song(CKKS)algorithm in supporting approximate floating-point computations.This paper reviews the development of three machine learning techniques:K-nearest neighbors(KNN),K-means clustering,and face recognition-in integration with homomorphic encryption.It proposes feasible schemes for typical scenarios,summarizes limitations and future optimization directions.Additionally,it presents a systematic exploration of the integration of homomorphic encryption and machine learning from the essence of the technology,application implementation,performance trade-offs,technological convergence and future pathways to advance technological development.

文摘Digital twin is a novel technology that has achieved significant progress in industrial manufactur-ing systems in recent years.In the digital twin envi-ronment,entities in the virtual space collect data from devices in the physical space to analyze their states.However,since a lot of devices exist in the physical space,the digital twin system needs to aggregate data from multiple devices at the edge gateway.Homomor-phic integrity and confidentiality protections are two important requirements for this data aggregation pro-cess.Unfortunately,existing homomorphic encryp-tion algorithms do not support integrity protection,and existing homomorphic signing algorithms require all signers to use the same signing key,which is not feasible in the digital twin environment.Moreover,for both integrity and confidentiality protections,the homomorphic signing algorithm must be compatible with the aggregation manner of the homomorphic en-cryption algorithm.To address these issues,this paper designs a novel homomorphic aggregation scheme,which allows multiple devices in the physical space to sign different data using different keys and support in-tegrity and confidentiality protections.Finally,the security of the newly designed scheme is analyzed,and its efficiency is evaluated.Experimental results show that our scheme is feasible for real world applications.

文摘In this study,we investigated privacy-preserving ID3 Decision Tree(PPID3)training and inference based on fully homomorphic encryption(FHE),which has not been actively explored due to the high computational cost associated with managing numerous child nodes in an ID3 tree.We propose HEaaN-ID3,a novel approach to realize PPID3 using the Cheon-Kim-Kim-Song(CKKS)scheme.HEaaN-ID3 is the first FHE-based ID3 framework that completes both training and inference without any intermediate decryption,which is especially valuable when decryption keys are inaccessible or a single-cloud security domain is assumed.To enhance computational efficiency,we adopt a modified Gini impurity(MGI)score instead of entropy to evaluate information gain,thereby avoiding costly inverse operations.In addition,we fully leverage the Single Instruction Multiple Data(SIMD)property of CKKS to parallelize computations at multiple tree nodes.Unlike previous approaches that require decryption at each node or rely on two-party secure computation,our method enables a fully non-interactive training and inference pipeline in the encrypted domain.We validated the proposed scheme using UCI datasets with both numerical and nominal features,demonstrating inference accuracy comparable to plaintext implementations in Scikit-Learn.Moreover,experiments show that HEaaN-ID3 significantly reduces training and inference time per node relative to earlier FHE-based approaches.
文摘A medical image encryption is proposed based on the Fisher-Yates scrambling,filter diffusion and S-box substitution.First,chaotic sequence associated with the plaintext is generated by logistic-sine-cosine system,which is used for the scrambling,substitution and diffusion processes.The three-dimensional Fisher-Yates scrambling,S-box substitution and diffusion are employed for the first round of encryption.The chaotic sequence is adopted for secondary encryption to scramble the ciphertext obtained in the first round.Then,three-dimensional filter is applied to diffusion for further useful information hiding.The key to the algorithm is generated by the combination of hash value of plaintext image and the input parameters.It improves resisting ability of plaintext attacks.The security analysis shows that the algorithm is effective and efficient.It can resist common attacks.In addition,the good diffusion effect shows that the scheme can solve the differential attacks encountered in the transmission of medical images and has positive implications for future research.
文摘We propose an unbounded fully homomorphic encryption scheme, i.e. a scheme that allows one to compute on encrypted data for any desired functions without needing to decrypt the data or knowing the decryption keys. This is a rational solution to an old problem proposed by Rivest, Adleman, and Dertouzos [1] in 1978, and to some new problems that appeared in Peikert [2] as open questions 10 and open questions 11 a few years ago. Our scheme is completely different from the breakthrough work [3] of Gentry in 2009. Gentry’s bootstrapping technique constructs a fully homomorphic encryption (FHE) scheme from a somewhat homomorphic one that is powerful enough to evaluate its own decryption function. To date, it remains the only known way of obtaining unbounded FHE. Our construction of an unbounded FHE scheme is straightforward and can handle unbounded homomorphic computation on any refreshed ciphertexts without bootstrapping transformation technique.
文摘The advent of quantum computing poses a significant challenge to traditional cryptographic protocols,particularly those used in SecureMultiparty Computation(MPC),a fundamental cryptographic primitive for privacypreserving computation.Classical MPC relies on cryptographic techniques such as homomorphic encryption,secret sharing,and oblivious transfer,which may become vulnerable in the post-quantum era due to the computational power of quantum adversaries.This study presents a review of 140 peer-reviewed articles published between 2000 and 2025 that used different databases like MDPI,IEEE Explore,Springer,and Elsevier,examining the applications,types,and security issues with the solution of Quantum computing in different fields.This review explores the impact of quantum computing on MPC security,assesses emerging quantum-resistant MPC protocols,and examines hybrid classicalquantum approaches aimed at mitigating quantum threats.We analyze the role of Quantum Key Distribution(QKD),post-quantum cryptography(PQC),and quantum homomorphic encryption in securing multiparty computations.Additionally,we discuss the challenges of scalability,computational efficiency,and practical deployment of quantumsecure MPC frameworks in real-world applications such as privacy-preserving AI,secure blockchain transactions,and confidential data analysis.This review provides insights into the future research directions and open challenges in ensuring secure,scalable,and quantum-resistant multiparty computation.
文摘The public key of the integer homomorphic encryption scheme which was proposed by Van Dijk et al. is long, so the scheme is almost impossible to use in practice. By studying the scheme and Coron’s public key compression technique, a scheme which is able to encrypt n bits plaintext once was obtained. The scheme improved the efficiency of the decrypting party and increased the number of encrypting parties, so it meets the needs of cloud computing better. The security of the scheme is based on the approximate GCD problem and the sparse-subset sum problem.
文摘In secure communications,lightweight encryption has become crucial,particularly for resource-constrained applications such as embedded devices,wireless sensor networks,and the Internet of Things(IoT).As these systems proliferate,cryptographic approaches that provide robust security while minimizing computing overhead,energy consumption,and memory usage are becoming increasingly essential.This study examines lightweight encryption techniques utilizing chaotic maps to ensure secure data transmission.Two algorithms are proposed,both employing the Logistic map;the first approach utilizes two logistic chaotic maps,while the second algorithm employs a single logistic chaotic map.Algorithm 1,including a two-stage mechanism that uses chaotic maps for both transposition and key generation,is distinguished by its robustness,guaranteeing a secure encryption method.The second techniqueutilized a single logistic chaoticmapeliminating the secondchaoticmapdecreases computing complexity while maintaining security.The efficacy of both algorithms was evaluated by subjecting them to NIST randomness tests following testing on text files of varying sizes.The findings demonstrate that the double chaotic map method regularly achieves elevated unpredictability and resilience.Conversely,the singular chaotic algorithm markedly lowers the duration necessary for encryption and decryption.These data suggest that while both algorithms are effective,their choice may be contingent upon specific security and processing speed requirements in practical applications.
