Intel, Microsoft join DARPA effort to accelerate fully homomorphic encryption
Matejmo / Getty Images Intel has partnered with Microsoft as part of a US Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) program that aims to develop hardware and software to drastically improve the performance of fully homomorphic encryption (FHE) computation. As part of the program, Intel will develop a hardware accelerator that could make machine learning practical with always-encrypted and privacy-preserving data. If successful, the multi-year effort could allow organizations from industries with strict data confidentiality requirements, such as healthcare, finance, bank...
