  • Patent number: 11962679
    Abstract: Collaborative multiparty homomorphic encryption comprising receiving a linear common public key collaboratively generated by a plurality of parties as a sum of linear public key shares associated with the respective plurality of parties. Each of two ciphertexts may be encrypted with the linear common public key and the two ciphertexts may be combined by a non-linear computation to generate a result ciphertext encrypted by a non-linear public key. The result ciphertext may be re-encrypted with a re-linearization key to swap encryption keys from the non-linear public key to a linear public key. The re-encrypted result ciphertext may be distributed to the plurality of parties to each partially decrypt the re-encrypted result ciphertext by a linear secret key share associated with the party, which in combination fully decrypts the result by a linear common secret key that is a sum of the secret key shares of the respective plurality of parties.

  • Patent number: 11750397
    Abstract: Resource user authentication and authorization is provided. An authentication code is generated based on using a retrieved attribute-based encryption user key as a secret key for a keyed-hash message authentication code digital signature over a set of header fields of a protected resource access request received from a client device of a resource user via a network. The generated authentication code is compared with an authentication code read within an embedded header field of the protected resource access request. It is determined whether a match exists between the generated authentication code and the authentication code read within the embedded header field. In response to determining that a match does exist, the resource user is authenticated. Decryption of an encrypted protected resource corresponding to the protected resource access request is performed using the retrieved attribute-based encryption user key corresponding to the resource user in response to authentication of the resource user.

  • Patent number: 11722298
    Abstract: Methods and systems generate seeds for public-private key pairs by determining a timestamp value associated with a process design kit (PDK) when a user of the PDK triggers a tool of the PDK while designing an integrated circuit device to have a physical unclonable function device (PUF). The methods and systems generate a first value by mapping the timestamp value to data of the user, generate a second value by mapping the timestamp value to configuration data of the PDK, and generate a third value by mapping the timestamp value to layout data of the PDK. A random number is then generated by applying a function to the first value, the second value, and the third value. A public-private encryption key pair is generated using the random number as a first seed number and using a second number generated by the number generation device as a second seed number.

  • Patent number: 11615176
    Abstract: Conventionally, biometric template protection has been achieved to improve matching performance with high levels of security by use of deep convolution neural network models. However, such attempts have prominent security limitations mapping information of images to binary codes is stored in an unprotected form. Given this model and access to the stolen protected templates, the adversary can exploit the False Accept Rate (FAR) of the system. Secondly, once the server system is compromised all the users need to be re-enrolled again. Unlike conventional systems and approaches, present disclosure provides systems and methods that implement encrypted deep neural network(s) for biometric template protection for enrollment and verification wherein the encrypted deep neural network(s) is utilized for mapping feature vectors to a randomly generated binary code and a deep neural network model learnt is encrypted thus achieving security and privacy for data protection.
