Abstract
Provided are methods and systems for performing a secure probabilistic analytic using an encrypted analytics matrix. An example method includes acquiring, by a client, an analytic, analytic parameters associated with the analytic, and a homomorphic encryption scheme including a public key for encryption and a private key for decryption. The method further includes generating, using the encryption scheme, an analytic matrix based on the analytic and analytic parameters, and sending the analytic matrix and the encryption scheme to at least one server. The method includes generating, by the server and based on the encryption scheme, set of terms from a data set, evaluating the analytic matrix over the set of terms to obtain an encrypted result, and estimating a probabilistic error of the encrypted result. The method further includes sending, by the server, the encrypted result and the probabilistic error to the client where the encrypted result is decrypted.
