In recent years, cloud encrypted data storage has become a widely adopted business standard by companies and is an easy-to-access storage solution from anywhere. However, security breaches occur when it is necessary to access data for a simple search or for a broader analysis. Normally, in such situations the data is decrypted to perform the required search or analysis, thus creating the opportunity for information theft.
With the homomorphic encryption, the data remains encrypted and is protected at all times, and the element that allows it to remain confidential and secure, even if a third party uses it, is a mathematical system for analyzing and processing encrypted data.
