Among several approaches to privacy-preserving cryptographic schemes, we have concentrated on noise-free homomorphic encryption. It is a symmetric key encryption that supports homomorphic operations on encrypted data. We present a fully homomorphic encryption (FHE) scheme based on sedenion algebra over finite Z n rings. The innovation of the scheme is the compression of a 16-dimensional vector for the application of Frobenius automorphism. For sedenion, we have p 16 different possibilities that create a significant bijective mapping over the chosen 16-dimensional vector that adds permutation to our scheme. The security of this scheme is based on the assumption of the hardness of solving a multivariate quadratic equation system over finite Z n rings. The scheme results in 256n multivariate polynomial equations with 256 + 16n unknown variables for n messages. For this reason, the proposed scheme serves as a security basis for potentially post-quantum cryptosystems. Moreover, after sedenion, no newly constructed algebra loses its properties. This scheme would therefore apply as a whole to the following algebras, such as 32dimensional trigintadunion.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
