TWC: Medium: Collaborative Research: Computing on Cryptographic Data

该项目通过探索两个相关领域来开发处理敏感数据的新技术，即私钥计算和认证数据计算。 目前，私钥是一种惰性对象，它使其保持器能够对所有消息执行加密操作，就像生成签名时的情况一样。 该项目正在探索一个新的愿景，在这个愿景中，对私钥本身的计算会创建新的受限私钥，这些私钥只能执行受限操作，例如，只对某些消息进行签名，而对其他消息则不能。 在对经过认证的数据进行计算的情况下-数据的完整性很重要，但保密性不重要-该项目正在开发新的工具，对这种数据进行计算，并获得经过认证的结果，该项目致力于传播研究成果，教育学生，并向工业界推广。 总的来说，拟议的项目将产生下一代技术，用于管理经过身份验证和加密的数据，同时推进应用密码学领域并教育下一代研究人员。

This project is developing new techniques for manipulating sensitive data by exploring two related areas, computing on private keys and computing on authenticated data. Currently, a private key is an inert object that gives its holder the ability to perform a cryptographic operation on all messages, as may be the case when generating a signature. The project is exploring a new vision, in which computing on the private key itself creates new restricted private keys that can only perform restricted operations such as, for example, signing only some messages but not others. In the case of computing on authenticated data -- data for which integrity is important but secrecy is not -- the project is developing new tools to compute on such data and obtain authenticated results.The project is committed to the dissemination of research results, education of students, and outreach to industry. Overall, the proposed project will produce a next generation of technology for managing authenticated and encrypted data while advancing the field of applied cryptography and educating the next generation of researchers.
