Imagine being able to perform any computational operation over any kind of data but do it while the data is fully encrypted. That is the promise of fully homomorphic encryption.
Fully homomorphic encryption was first theorized in the 1970s, but the first proposal for a plausible construction of a fully homomorphic encryption scheme didn’t arrive until 2009. We are now in the fourth-generation of fully homomorphic encryption and although performance is still a blocker for many applications, there’s been a series of major breakthroughs allowing real world application to take advantage of the approach.
Dr. Avradip Mandal received his PhD from the University of Luxembourg where his research focused on cryptography, in particular homomorphic encryption and theoretical symmetric key cryptography. He joins the show to describe what homomorphic encryption is, how it works, the history, and breakthroughs.

Ram Muthukrishnan, Senior Product Manager at Skyflow, joins the show to delve into the fundamental aspects of data protection. Ram demystified key concepts like redaction, masking, and encryption, shedding light on their significance in the world of data protection.
In this episode, we dive into the realm of cloud security with Merritt Baer, Field CISO of Lacework. Together, we look at the complex tapestry of perceptions surrounding on-premises security versus the cloud, shedding light on why some still view on-prem as the safer option.
In this episode, we explore the world of General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) Catawiki’s Data Protection Lead Paul Breitbarth. We cover GDPR's history, business essentials, compliance significance, and the art of harmonizing business objectives with regulatory demands.
