Fully Homomorphic Encryption and The Future of Data Privacy
Manage episode 447604745 series 2548283
The intersection of cryptography and GPU programming has changed the face of secure data processing, making methods for encryption and decryption much faster and more efficient than ever imagined. Cryptography is the science of encrypting data with intricate algorithms initially designed to operate on very intensive computational powers. GPU programming provides the ability to utilise parallel processing of graphics processing units in cryptographic processes so they perform with unmatched speed.
While continuously evolving, GPUs are furnishing the computational muscle to execute ever-higher-level cryptographic algorithms without performance penalties. Developers now fully avail of the power of GPU parallelism to perform several thousand encryption tasks simultaneously, which is difficult for traditional CPUs to keep up with. This efficiency is critical in this growing data and rising cyber threat era, where organisations need rapid encryption and robust security.
In this episode, Paulina Rios Maya, Head of Industry Relations, speaks to Agnes Leroy, Senior Software Engineer at Zama, about the significance of encryption in high-stakes industries, the role of women in tech and the importance of mentorship in overcoming barriers in the industry.
