Episode 60: Cryptography 101: Multi-Party Computations

In this week's episode, Anna and Fredrik give a general introduction to MPCs, go over a few examples of MPCs in action, compare them with other cryptographic concepts, try to pronounce "fully homomorphic encryption" properly, and more! Here are some of the material that we reference: Andrew Yao's paper on Protocols for Secure Computations "How to play ANY mental game" publication - MPCs first introduced Goldreich-Micali-Wigderson (GMW) Very basic intro to Shamir Secret Sharing and MPCs Video Series from a Prof at Chalmers First widely used MPC in Denmark Multi-Party Computation: From Theory to Practice. Nigel P. Smart speaking at Google Rob Habermeier's Shamir Secret Sharing library A course by Zvika Brakerski on Fully Homomorphic Encryption Thanks again to this week's sponsor Aragon.
