Homomorphic encryption allows an organization to manipulate highly sensitive personal information without revealing the contents of the data to the users. This encryption method enables computations to be performed on encrypted data, producing an encrypted result that, when decrypted, matches the result of operations performed on the plain data. This technique maintains data confidentiality while allowing for meaningful analysis and processing, as detailed in the IAPP’s CIPT resources on advanced encryption techniques.
