Homomorphic encryption is pretty wild, you can sort and search data without decrypting it.

Cute, but it looks like there aren’t actually any FIPS approved homomorphic protocols. That’s a big risk for someone like a bank to take on

Trust the math. You don’t need to accept risk if you can check the math yourself.

FIPS updates/approvals always take a long time.

And we are SURE Intel will not hold a backdoor for the supposedly encrypted data

Couldn’t you technically figure out what the data is by doing a bunch of operations on it and observing the result? I’m not a math or security guy by any stretch but this seems almost too good to be true.

That’s impossible, the keys are not there.

How do you get useful “predictive analytics” in healthcare without breaking that encryption? This smells like snake oil from cloud-vendors when I don’t have rigorous math proofs cited in the wikipedia page.

Yes, it’s guaranteed!
Oh, you said “not”…
