Purpose of the Event

This project (Oct.2015 to Sep.2021), "Development of Secure Content
Sharing and Distribution Infrastructure for Integrated Use of Big Data,"
is a national project supported by the Japan Science and Technology
Agency (JST) under the CREST "Creation and Systematization of Next
Generation Fundamental Technologies for Integrated Use of Big Data"
funding program. The ultimate goal of this project is to create
open-source libraries that can handle data over fully homomorphic
encryption to create an infrastructure that allows content providers to
provide data with confidence and content users to use the results with
trust in order to promote the utilization of big data. Furthermore,
since the previous methods, which can handle contents over encryption,
have performance limitations, we aim to achieve a speedup of more than
1000 times by optimizing from the viewpoints both of the cryptographic
theory and the computer architecture.

 In this symposium, we will report on the final results of this project
so far and have two prominent researchers' talks. We invite Prof. Kurt R.
ROHLOFF, Director of the Cyber Security Research Center at the New
Jersey Institute of Technology, and Dr. Kim Laine, Principal Research
Manager of Microsoft Research.

<<Invited Talk>>
Success and Opportunities Moving Homomorphic Encryption from Research to Practice
Prof. Kurt Rohloff (NJIT)

Abastract:
FHE is ground-breaking in its ability for privacy-preserving data science on sensitive data sets.  We will discuss recent ground-breaking advances being made on making FHE practical and usable, across the world.  We discuss success and opportunities for practical commercial applications of these technologies for government, medical and financial applications, such as secure end-to-end encrypted mobile information sharing, Genome-Wide Association Studies on encrypted genomic data and financial crime fighting applications. We also discuss the development of international standards for homomorphic encryption being adopted by leading technology companies and government organizations.

Biography:
Dr. Kurt Rohloff is an Associate Professor of Computer Science at NJIT, and the CTO and Co-founder of Duality Technologies.  He has been leading the development and application of practical PETs technologies, with a focus on Fully Homomorphic Encryption since it was first discovered in 2009.  He is the co-founder of the PALISADE open-source library and co-founder of the HomomorphicEncryption.org industry consortium for PETs technologies.  He has led multiple DARPA and IARPA efforts to develop and apply homomorphic encryption, and he has been awarded a DARPA Director's Fellowship and other recognition for his work on PETs.  He received his undergrad degree from Georgia Tech and his MS and PhD from the Univ. of Michigan.

Homomorphic Encryption in Microsoft Edge
Dr. Kim Laine (Principal Research Manager, Microsoft Research)

Abstract: 
Homomorphic encryption can be used to construct very efficient private set intersection (PSI) protocols, which makes – as I will explain – a particularly compelling use-case of homomorphic encryption. I will explain how such PSI protocols can be efficient, present some recent performance numbers, and discuss a deployment in the Microsoft Edge browser.
 
Biography:
Dr. Kim Laine is a Principal Research Manager at Microsoft Research, where he leads the Cryptography and Privacy Research Group. His team has worked on applied homomorphic encryption for many years, most notably building and maintaining the Microsoft SEAL library. Kim is one of the steering committee members of the HomomorphicEncryption.org group and a co-rapporteur on a recent ISO/IEC new work item proposal for fully homomorphic encryption. Kim graduated from UC Berkeley in 2015 with a Ph.D. in Mathematics.

Mr. Hiroki Imabayashi (CEO, Eaglys)
Hiroki Imabayashi is a founder and CEO at EAGLYS, being responsible for strategy and alliance, business development, and finance since the foundation in 2016. He has been implementing multiple use cases in a private sector across industries, with practical applications of Homomorphic Encryption along with other Privacy Enhancing Technologies(PETs). He started his research on the data mining application of Fully Homomorphic Encryption in 2015, on the research project from Japan Science and Technology Agency (JST) CREST. During the project, published multiple white papers and skipped grades to a Ph.D. course with an award. In 2019, became an AI strategy advisor for Tokyu Housing Leasing. In 2020, became a member of the AI Working Group at Consumer Affairs Agency. In the same year, he was commended by the Japan Venture Awards as "a manager of a highly motivated venture company that conducts innovative and high-potential businesses that contribute to solving social issues," and received the Small and Medium Business Administration Commissioner's Award. He received his undergraduate degree and his MS from Waseda University.

Prof. Hayato YAMANA (Waseda University)
Dr. Hayato Yamana received a Dr. Eng. degree at Waseda University in 1993. He began his career at the Electrotechnical Laboratory of the former Ministry of International Trade and Industry (MITI), and was seconded to MITI's Machinery and Information Industries Bureau for a year in 1996. He was subsequently appointed associate professor of Computer Science and Engineering at Waseda University in 2000 and has been a professor since 2005. From 2018 to 2020, he served on the board of governors of IEEE Computer Society. At Waseda University, since Oct. 2020, he has been Vice President for IT Promotion and Chief Information Officer. His research interests include big data analysis and computer architecture. Especially from 2015, he is engaged in speeding up the execution over fully homomorphic encryption using computer architecture, compiler techniques.
