An example system includes a processor to mask a ciphertext using four random elements to generate masked ciphertexts. The processor can send the masked ciphertexts to a server device. The processor can receive masked plaintexts from the server device. The processor can unmask the masked plaintexts using the four random elements to generate unmasked plaintexts.

Masking ciphertexts using random elements for secure decryption

A computer-implemented method for generating hash values to determine string similarity is disclosed. The computer-implemented method includes converting a first text string of a first data set into a first set of shingles. The computer-implemented method further includes determining a weight associated with each shingle in the first set of shingles based, at least in part, on a particular record field associated with a shingle. The computer-implemented method further includes generating, based on a hash function, a hash value for each shingle in the first set of shingles. The computer-implemented method further includes reducing the hash value generated for each shingle in the first set of shingles, based, at least in part on the weight associated with the shingle.

String similarity based weighted min-hashing

An example system includes a processor to receive, from a client device, a delete query requesting deletion of a row of in a fully homomorphically encrypted (FHE) database. The processor can store an identifier of the row to be deleted in a deletion queue, where the row is to be replaced with values of a row to be inserted from a received insertion query.
