Interesting, I was aware of IBM's work in this field and certainly an area they have been a bit more focused upon:

https://www.ibm.com/blogs/research/2020/06/ibm-releases-fully-homomorphic-encryption-toolkit-for-macos-and-ios-linux-and-android-coming-soon/ https://www.ibm.com/blogs/research/2020/06/ibm-releases-full...

So the whole aspect of IBM not being involved does seem (too me at least, curious.
- erk__ 6y agoI would imagine that IBM have their own private hardware for it, or at the very least wants to make it themselves. IBM still have their own chip designers and still make quite a large selection of rather custom kinds of chips and processors.
- Zenst 6y agoVery true, but they also do not own any chip Fab nowadays, having shifted that to Global Foundaries iirc. Which is one area that Intel still have in house. But given how much research IBM has done, I do wonder how many patents they hold in the FME feild.
