Duality Technologies

Duality Technologies is a privacy-enhancing technology (PET) company founded by cryptographers and data scientists, including Turing Award-winning Prof. Shafi Goldwasser and MIT professor Prof. Vinod Vaikuntanathan, a co-inventor of modern fully homomorphic encryption (FHE) systems. The company's core offering centers on operationalizing Privacy Enhancing Technologies to enable organizations to perform secure data analysis and run AI workloads on encrypted data — without exposing the underlying sensitive information. This allows organizations to collaborate with external parties such as customers, suppliers, and partners while maintaining compliance with data privacy regulations and protecting intellectual property. Duality's technology is applied across industries including financial services (e.g., anti-money laundering, financial fraud detection) and government/defense (e.g., DARPA-funded programs). The platform supports secure multi-party computation and homomorphic encryption, enabling joint analytics and machine learning across organizational boundaries without decrypting data. Partners and customers include DARPA, Intel, Scotiabank, Oracle, IBM, AWS, Microsoft Azure, Google, Deloitte, and NVIDIA. The company is backed by investors including Team8, Intel Capital, LG Technology Ventures, Hearst Ventures, and Euclidean Capital. Its advisory board includes former NSA Director Admiral Mike Rogers, former MI6 Director Sir Alexander Younger, and former GCHQ Director Sir Jeremy Fleming.
