Abstract

Disclosed is a method and apparatus for modulus refresh, where the method for modulus refresh of a ciphertext in homomorphic encryption includes receiving a first ciphertext corresponding to a first modulus, generating a second ciphertext by performing a blind rotation on the first ciphertext, and generating a target ciphertext corresponding to a second modulus greater than the first modulus based on the first ciphertext and the second ciphertext.
