Seminar: Guidance for Efficient Selection of Secure Parameters for Fully Homomorphic Encryption.

22th of May at Tanger Building of Universitat Pompeu Fabra.

PROGRAM

11.30 Welcome with breakfast in the terrace of the 3rd floor.

12:00 Presentation in the room 309 (in front of the terrace).

On 22th we are organising a Seminar on Fully Homomorphic Encryption (FHE) with the presentation of the paper Guidance for Efficient Selection of Secure Parameters for Fully Homomorphic Encryption by Sergi Rovira (BSC, UPF). The seminar will be also offered in streaming.

In any case, we ask you to register with your email and indicate if you will come in person: register.

We share the abstract and indicate how to watch the presentation in streaming in the following. 

Abstract:

The field of Fully Homomorphic Encryption (FHE) has seen many theoretical and computational advances in recent years, bringing the technology closer to practicality than ever before. For this reason, practitioners from neighbouring fields such as machine learning have sought to understand FHE to provide privacy to their work. Unfortunately, selecting secure and efficient parameters in FHE is a daunting task due to the many interdependencies between the parameters involved. In this talk, we introduce formulas which provide secure and optimal parameters for any lattice-based scheme. We build our formulas from a strong theoretical foundation based on cryptanalysis against LWE.
