If anyone ever had any doubt about the coming reality of ubiquitous cryptography, here is the next move.
- xnull 12y agoOblivious Transfer, ZKPs, SMPC, Functional Encryption, Attribute-Based Encryption, (better) cryptocurrency are all things I expect to see before FHE.
- quinndupont 12y agoHomomorphic encapsulates some of this, no? Certainly functional crypto, c.f. http://link.springer.com/chapter/10.1007%2F978-3-642-45239-0_5 http://link.springer.com/chapter/10.1007%2F978-3-642-45239-0... And there will certainly be many more advances, but if/when functional crypto gets totally sorted out it will change everything.
- xnull2guest 12y agoYes, it's more general. The schemes that just do functional encryption are more efficient because they don't need to do everything else FHE needs to.
