Zama Description

Zama is a cryptography company that develops open source fully homomorphic encryption (FHE) technologies. The company focuses on enabling data to be processed while remaining encrypted, allowing computations to be performed on encrypted data without requiring decryption. This approach addresses privacy concerns in cloud computing and online services by ensuring data remains encrypted during transmission, storage, and processing. The company's technology allows users to encrypt their data with a secret key, send it to a service provider for processing, and receive encrypted results that only they can decrypt. Service providers can perform operations on the encrypted data without ever seeing the actual content. Zama builds tools and libraries for developers to implement FHE in their applications across various use cases including healthcare, biometric authentication, voice assistants, and blockchain smart contracts. Zama's work aims to make FHE practical for widespread adoption by improving performance and reducing computational overhead. The company provides open source FHE technologies to help organizations implement end-to-end encryption in their products and services. Their vision includes establishing a new internet protocol standard (HTTPZ) that would make end-to-end encryption the default for online services, moving beyond the current HTTPS standard which only encrypts data in transit.
