Abstract
A homomorphic operation accelerator includes a plurality of circuits and a homomorphic operation managing circuit. The plurality of circuits may perform homomorphic operations. The homomorphic operation managing circuit may receive cipher text data, homomorphic encryption information and homomorphic operation information from an external device. The homomorphic operation managing circuit may activate or deactivate each of a plurality of enable signals applied to the plurality of circuits based on the homomorphic encryption information and the homomorphic operation information. The homomorphic operation managing circuit may activate or deactivate each of the plurality of circuits based on the plurality of enable signals. The homomorphic encryption information may be associated with a homomorphic encryption algorithm used to generate the cipher text data. The homomorphic operation information may be associated with the homomorphic operations to be performed on the cipher text data.
