Abstract

Systems and methods for computing a private set intersection are disclosed. A method includes storing, at a sender device, a first set of values. The method includes receiving, from a receiver device, a homomorphic encryption of a receiver device value. The method includes computing a homomorphically encrypted number based on a difference between the homomorphic encryption of the receiver device value and each value in the first set of values, and based on a hash function of the encryption of the receiver device value. The method includes transmitting the homomorphically encrypted number to the receiver device for determination, at the receiver device, whether the receiver device value is in the first set of values.
