We introduce the four pillars required to achieve perfectly privacy-preserving AI and discuss various technologies that can help address each of the pillars.
We discuss a practical application of homomorphic encryption to privacy-preserving signal processing, particularly focusing on the Fourier transform.
We cover the basics of homomorphic encryption, followed by a brief overview of open source HE libraries and a tutorial on how to use one of those libraries (namely, PALISADE).
A number of people ask us why we should bother creating NLP tools that preserve privacy. Apparently not everyone spends hours thinking about data breaches and privacy infringements.
A very brief overview of privacy-preserving technologies follows for anyone who’s interested in starting out in this area. I cover symmetric encryption, asymmetric encryption, homomorphic encryption, differential privacy, and secure multi-party computation.
