Homomorphic encryption (HE) represents an encryption technique that supports computations over encrypted data, without the need for decryption while computing. It is mandatory that the result of the computations applied on plain data be the same as the decryption of the result achieved by applying over the encrypted data corresponding computations that reflect the ones applied on the plain data. These types of encryption schemes have great potential, because third parties may compute ...
