Report Scope and Market Segmentation      

Market Definition

Fully homomorphic encryption (FHE) is an advanced cryptographic technique that allows computations to be performed directly on encrypted data without the need for decryption. This means that sensitive information can remain encrypted throughout processing, enabling secure data analysis and computation in scenarios such as cloud computing. FHE preserves data privacy by ensuring that even the entity performing the computation cannot access the original, unencrypted data. It has significant implications for protecting privacy in various applications, including secure data outsourcing and confidential computations.
