Abstract
The invention of the first public-key cryptosystem four decades ago fired up the development of myriads of secure solutions for protecting data in a large variety of scenarios such as data retrieval, transmission and processing. This dissertation brings together several results on secure computations. We study post-quantum key agreement from generic lattices, attribute-based encryption, and privacy preserving multi-party computations with applications to machine learning. We provide the first instantiation and implementation of a key agreement protocol based on hard problems in random lattices. We show numerous optimizations of the protocol that make it efficient and practical. Next, we build a new lattice-based encryption scheme that lets anyone translate a ciphertext encrypted under a public key x into a ciphertext encrypted under the public key (f(x), f) of the same plaintext for any arithmetic circuit f. We showthat this scheme gives an Attribute-Based Encryption with short keys. Third, we develop systems for privacy preserving data-mining. We design and implement a protocol for computing linear regression model on user data without revealing any other information about the data.
