A Secure Cloud Computing Architecture Using Homomorphic Encryption

Abstract

The Purpose of homomorphic encryption is to ensure privacy of data in communication, storage or in use by processes with mechanisms similar to conventional cryptography, but with added capabilities of computing over encrypted data, searching an encrypted data, etc. Homomorphism is a property by which a problem in one algebraic system can be converted to a problem in another algebraic system, be solved and the solution later can also be translated back effectively. Thus, homomorphism makes secure delegation of computation to a third party possible. Many conventional encryption schemes possess either multiplicative or additive homomorphic property and are currently in use for respective applications. Yet, a Fully Homomorphic Encryption (FHE) scheme which could perform any arbitrary computation over encrypted data appeared in 2009 as Gentry’s work. In this paper, we propose a multi-cloud architecture of N distributed servers to repartition the data and to nearly allow achieving an FHE.
