  • Patent number: 10778409
    Abstract: An encryption method is provided. According to the encryption method, a scaling factor may be reflected in a message and then, a homomorphic ciphertext may be generated using a public key. The generated ciphertext is, when decryption is performed, generated in a form that a result value obtained by adding an error value to a value obtained by reflecting the scaling factor in the message is restored. Accordingly, a homomorphic ciphertext capable of being computed in a ciphertext state can be effectively generated.
