A method is provided for generating an encrypted database. The method includes: receiving a plaintext database having plaintext data entries therein; and generating an encrypted database using the plaintext database, the encrypted database including encrypted data entries therein. The encrypted database is configured to support at least one form of conditional query such that the at least one form of conditional query returns a correct encrypted result when the query is computed on the encrypted data entries without the decryption thereof.

System and architecture for analytics on encrypted databases

A method is provided for generating an encrypted database. The method includes: receiving a plaintext database having plaintext data entries in one or more columns; augmenting the received plaintext database to generate an augmented plaintext database, the augmenting including the addition of one or more columns to the received plaintext database, each added column corresponding to an attribute which is to be made available for conditional queries; and encrypting the augmented plaintext database to generate the encrypted database including encrypted data entries. The encrypted database supports at least one form of conditional query for those attributes corresponding to the added columns, the at least one form of conditional query being computed on the encrypted data entries without the decryption thereof to produce an encrypted result.

System and architecture for supporting analytics on encrypted databases

One embodiment provides a system for noise addition to enforce data privacy protection in a star network. In operation, participants may add a noise component to a dataset. An aggregator may receive the noise components from the plurality of participants, compute an overall noise term based on the received noise components, and aggregate values using the noise components and overall noise term.
