How Homomorphic Encryption Enables Multi-Party Computation: Architecture, Overhead, and the SaaS Decision
Homomorphic encryption (HE) provides a cryptographic foundation for secure multi-party computation (MPC), enabling joint evaluation of functions on private inputs without revealing them. While offering non-interactive computation attractive for SaaS, it incurs significant computational overhead, necessitating careful trade-off analysis.
