Abstract

A significant disadvantage of fully homomorphic encryption is the long periods of time needed to process encrypted data, due to its complex and CPU-intensive arithmetic techniques. In this paper, the fully homomorphic encryption library LibScarab is extended by integer arithmetics, comparisons, decisions and multithreading to secure data processing. Furthermore, it enhances 32 and 64-bit arithmetic operations, improving them by a higher factor. This extension is integrated into a cloud computing architecture in the field of Legal Metrology. The resulting parallelized algorithm solved the time constraint issues for smart meter gateway tariffs. Several tests were performed, fulfilling the tariff specifications of the German Federal Office for Information Security (BSI). It was concluded that this extension of the fully homomorphic encryption library meets the requirements of real world applications.
