Abstract
Described is a system for proactively secure multi-party computation (MPC). Secret shares representing data are constructed to perform computations between a plurality of parties modeled as probabilistic polynomial-time interactive turing machines. A number of rounds of communication where the plurality of parties jointly compute on the secret shares is specified. Additionally, a threshold of a number of the plurality of parties that can be corrupted by an adversary is specified. The secret shares are periodicially refreshed and reshared among the plurality of parties before and after computations in each of the rounds of communication. The data the secret shares represent is proactively secured.
