Abstract:

Many conventional cryptographic systems have homomorphic properties, yet there was no need of homomorphisms and little attention was paid to it. The ability to process encrypted data led to a renewed interest in Homomorphisms and a new cryptographic primitive, Fully Homomorphic Encryption (FHE) emerged. With time, question arose as to whether FHE is possible or not which has now modified as whether FHE is applicable or not. This paper provides a brief survey focusing on the development of HE to FHE and discussing all relevant research works in this direction in one section. The second section discusses the applications of FHE. The last section describes briefly some of the research works aiming at Searching/Sorting through FHE.

Keywords:

Information Security, Homomorphic Encryption, Fully Homomorphic Encryption, Sorting, Searching.
