New encryption protocol boosts privacy in Federated Learning

Researchers have developed a new multi-secret-key homomorphic encryption protocol designed to enhance privacy in Federated Learning. This protocol addresses limitations in existing methods by avoiding the generation of a collective public key and instead encrypting client updates with individual secret keys. The proposed approach significantly reduces ciphertext expansion and computational costs associated with private average aggregation, offering improved performance compared to current state-of-the-art techniques.

    Pushing Forward Multi-Secret-Key Homomorphic Encryption for Private Average Aggregation

    arXiv:2609.01945v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Federated Learning enables multiple clients to train a shared model while keeping their local datasets isolated. However, the exchanged model updates may still leak sensitive information, making private aggregation a central build…
