TECHNIQUES FOR SECURELY EXECUTING CODE THAT OPERATES ON ENCRYPTED DATA ON A PUBLIC COMPUTER

摘要

Techniques, for secure processing of encrypted data on public resources, include receiving first data indicating a sequence of reversible q-bit gates including a first segment for decrypting, a second segment for operating on the decrypted data, and a third segment for encrypting the resulting data. Second data indicates rules for replacing a first sequence of two gates operating on at least one shared bit of an input N-bit word with a different second sequence of one or more gates that produce the same output N-bit word. The second data is used to propagate: a gate from the first segment a distance into the second segment or beyond; and, a gate from the third segment a distance into the second segment or before. This produces an obfuscated sequence of reversible gates. Obfuscated instructions based on the obfuscated sequence of gates are sent to the public resources.
