FHEW: Bootstrapping Homomorphic Encryption in Less Than a Second
نویسندگان
چکیده
The main bottleneck affecting the efficiency of all known fully homomorphic encryption (FHE) schemes is Gentry’s bootstrapping procedure, which is required to refresh noisy ciphertexts and keep computing on encrypted data. Bootstrapping in the latest implementation of FHE, the HElib library of Halevi and Shoup (Crypto 2014), requires about six minutes per batch. We present a new method to homomorphically compute simple bit operations, and refresh (bootstrap) the resulting output, which runs on a personal computer in just about half a second. We present a detailed technical analysis of the scheme (based on the worst-case hardness of standard lattice problems) and report on the performance of our prototype implementation.

Faster Fully Homomorphic Encryption: Bootstrapping in Less Than 0.1 Seconds
In this paper, we revisit fully homomorphic encryption (FHE) based on GSW and its ring variants. We notice that the internal product of GSW can be replaced by a simpler external product between a GSW and an LWE ciphertext. We show that the bootstrapping scheme FHEW of Ducas and Micciancio [14] can be expressed only in terms of this external product. As a result, we obtain a speed up from less t...
متن کاملLarge FHE gates from Tensored Homomorphic Accumulator
The main bottleneck of all known Fully Homomorphic Encryption schemes lies in the bootstrapping procedure invented by Gentry (STOC’09). The cost of this procedure can be mitigated either using Homomorphic SIMD techniques, or by performing larger computation per bootstrapping procedure. In this work, we propose new techniques allowing to perform more operations per bootstrapping in FHEW-type sch...
متن کاملOn FHE Without Bootstrapping (Informal)
We investigate the use of multivariate polynomials in constructing a fully homomorphic encryption. In this work we come up with two fully homomorphic schemes. First, we propose an IND-CPA secure symmetric key homomorphic encryption scheme using multivariate polynomial ring over finite fields. This scheme gives a method of constructing a CPA secure homomorphic encryption scheme from another symm...
متن کاملMinimizing the Number of Bootstrappings in Fully Homomorphic Encryption
There has been great progress regarding efficient implementations of fully homomorphic encryption schemes since the first construction by Gentry. However, evaluating complex circuits is still undermined by the necessary resort to the bootstrapping procedure. Minimizing the number of times such procedure is called is a simple yet very efficient way to critically improve performances of homomorph...

As an important cryptographic primitive in cloud computing and outsourced computation, fully homomorphic encryption (FHE) is an animated area of modern cryptography. However, the efficiency of FHE has been a bottleneck that impeding its application. According to Gentry’s blueprint, bootstrapping, which is used to decrease ciphertext errors, is the most important process in FHE. However, bootstr...
