More on what IBM is doing in the space of 'Fully Homomorphic Encryption', which is now including 'quantum safe' capabilities. Here is a definition of that capability from the WP.
Now IBM is putting out an experimental capability for testing.
IBM launches experimental homomorphic data encryption environment for the enterprise
Is it possible for fully homomorphic encryption to be a “game-changer” for data privacy? IBM intends to find out.
IBM has launched a fully homomorphic encryption (FHE) test service for the enterprise in the first step to bringing in-transit encrypted data analysis into the commercial sector.
IBM said on Thursday that the new FHE solution, IBM Security Homomorphic Encryption Services, will allow clients to start experimenting with how the technology could be implemented to enhance the privacy of their existing IT architecture, products, and data.
FHE, considered by some as the "Holy Grail" of encryption, as it is a form of encryption that allows data to remain encrypted when being processed.
The concept behind FHE is to plug the gap between securely-encrypted data held in storage and the need to decrypt while this information is in use -- a requirement in data processing or analysis -- which can create protection issues. ... "
