Abstract

In order to assess the security level of different parameter choices in fully homomorphic encryption (FHE) as well as different FHE algorithms, we want to test the performance of at least two new solving algorithms. One is a meet-in-the-middle approach for solving RLWE with low weight secret, the second one is a noise-flooding attack on a recently proposed multi-key FHE scheme. Both tasks require large computational resources.
