053 FHE: Past, Present and Future w/ Craig Gentry

Abstract
This talk will look at the past, present and future of FHE.
About the speakers
Craig Gentry is the CTO of TripleBlind, known for pioneering fully homomorphic encryption (FHE). While a PhD student at Stanford, he constructed the first plausibly secure FHE scheme, enabling computations on encrypted data. While at IBM Research, Gentry collaborated with many other researchers on the second and third generations of FHE that base security on well-studied lattice problems and make FHE significantly more practical. He also contributed to the first plausible program obfuscation schemes and practical zero-knowledge proofs used in blockchains. For his work, Gentry has received the ACM Doctoral Dissertation Award, the MacArthur Award, the Gödel Prize, and was named an IACR Fellow.

The legend himself

Must seen for everyone willing to start with Fully Homomorphic Encryption!

[@ebenezernoble9513]

i am not really a math expert but i would want to build applications using homomorphic encryption. Where do i start?

[@fhe_org]

Best place to start is fhe.org. Loads of resources, and you can join the community and ask any question you like. See you there!

[@ebenezernoble9513]

Thank you so much. I’ve joined the community but I barely get responses. Currently building a fullstack web application with RSA and would like to be mentored. Already wrote the encryption logic.
