We show how two existing paradigms for two-party secure function evaluation (SFE) in the semi-honest model can be combined securely and eciently { those based on additively homomorphic en- cryption (HE) with those based on garbled circuits (GC) and vice versa. Additionally, we propose new GC constructions for addition, subtrac- tion, multiplication, and comparison functions. Our circuits are approx- imately two times smaller (in terms of garbled tables) than previous constructions. This implies…

Communication-Efficient (Client-Aided) Secure Two-Party Protocols and Its Application
TLDR
This paper constructs semi-honest secure communication-efficient two-party protocols using Beaver triple extension, which is a new tool for treating multi-fan-in gates, and it is confirmed via experiments that such a disadvantage has small effects on the whole online performance in the typical WAN environments.
Practical Applications of Homomorphic Encryption
TLDR
A simple algebraically homomorphic scheme over the integers that is based on the factorization of an approximate semiprime integer is discussed and a couple of known protocols that can be implemented with it are provided.

TLDR
This work presents a mode of operation for homomorphic cryptographic systems such that pseudo-random values are decrypted and used as a pseudo one time pad to construct a stream cipher, and the resulting ciphertexts can be trivially transformed into an homomorphic encryption of the concealed data.
An efficient protocol for private iris-code matching by means of garbled circuits
TLDR
This paper focuses on privacy-preserving iris-based authentication and proposes the adoption of a matching protocol based only on garbled circuits which offers longer term security over existing solutions based on homomorphic encryption or hybrid techniques.

How Practical is Homomorphically Encrypted Program Execution? An Implementation and Performance Evaluation
TLDR
This work expands its work to evaluate how practical current homomorphic cryptography based on the Smart-Vercauteren system is for executing arbitrary programs on untrusted resources and presents the implementation of a method to compute non-linear secret programs on anUntrusted resource using encrypted circuits embedded in an encrypted virtual machine.
Secure Adaptive Filtering
TLDR
This work proposes several novel secure protocols for a privacy-preserving execution of the least mean squares (LMS) algorithm, combining different SPED techniques, and paying special attention to the error analysis of the finite-precision implementations.
Piecewise Function Approximation With Private Data
TLDR
Two secure two party computation protocols for piecewise function approximation on private data rely on a piecewise approximation of the to-be-computed function easing the implementation in an STPC setting and exploits a hybrid construction where GC and homomorphic encryption are used together.

This paper uses the own implementation of the Smart-Gentry crypto-system as a foundation and defines a processor architecture which is capable of executing encrypted programs on encrypted data, and presents the first method to compute a non-linear arbitrary secret program on an untrusted resource using fully homomorphic encrypted circuits.
Secret program execution in the cloud applying homomorphic encryption
