Abstract

Methods and systems for reducing noise in homomorphic multiplication include: receiving a plurality of ciphertexts, each having a corresponding level; receiving data specifying a homomorphic multiplication on two ciphertexts; for two ciphertexts having different levels: adjusting a scaling factor of a first ciphertext so that the respective scaling factors of the two ciphertexts are the same; performing the homomorphic multiplication; and rescaling a result of the homomorphic multiplication; for two ciphertexts having the same level: performing the homomorphic multiplication; rescaling a result of the homomorphic multiplication; and using the scaling factors of the two ciphertexts during a decryption process.
