Cloud Security: In this project, we research the use of fully homomorphic encryption (FHE) for building cloud functionality. In theory, FHE is the perfectly secure tool for storing and processing sensitive data in an untrusted cloud environment. However, this innovative encryption method introduces a significant overhead leading to a large computational and communication effort. Recent scientific results have shown progress to overcome this burden by e.g. software and hardware speed-ups.
The goal is to study the current state-of-the-art in FHE-based solutions for cloud functionality and develop ways to build cryptographic cloud components that could be used for e.g. Federated Mission Networking.
