IBM’s Fully Homomorphic Encryption (FHE) Toolkit aims to allow developers to start using FHE in their solutions. According to IBM, FHE can have a dramatic impact on data security and privacy in highly regulated industries by enabling computing directly on encrypted data.

Broadly classifiable within the same arena as secure multi-party computation, Homomorphic Encryption is an approach to secure computation that does not require decrypting your data in order to process them. Instead, homomorphic encryption enables processing ciphertexts with the guarantee that encrypted results match those that would be produced by first decrypting input data, processing them, and finally encrypting them
