About

What is Concrete

Concrete is an open-source FHE Compiler that simplifies the use of fully homomorphic encryption (FHE). Concrete framework contains a TFHE Compiler based on LLVM, making writing FHE programs an easy task for developers.

Fully Homomorphic Encryption (FHE) enables performing computations on encrypted data directly without the need to decrypt it first. FHE allows developers to build services that ensure privacy for all users. FHE is also an excellent solution against data breaches as everything is performed on encrypted data. Even if the server is compromised, no sensitive data will be leaked.

Concrete is a versatile library that can be used for a variety of purposes. For instance, Concrete ML is built on top of Concrete to simplify Machine-Learning oriented use cases. <br></br>

Note: Wheels with GPU support are not on PyPI. You can install it from our package index by adding --index-url https://pypi.zama.ai/gpu, more information on GPU wheels here.

Docker

You can get the concrete-python docker image by pulling the latest docker image:

docker pull zamafhe/concrete-python:v2.0.0

A simple example

To compute on encrypted data, you first need to define the function you want to compute, then compile it into a Concrete Circuit, which you can use to perform homomorphic evaluation. Here is the full example:

from concrete import fhe

def add(x, y):
    return x + y

compiler = fhe.Compiler(add, {"x": "encrypted", "y": "encrypted"})

inputset = [(2, 3), (0, 0), (1, 6), (7, 7), (7, 1), (3, 2), (6, 1), (1, 7), (4, 5), (5, 4)]

print(f"Compilation...")
circuit = compiler.compile(inputset)

print(f"Key generation...")
circuit.keygen()

print(f"Homomorphic evaluation...")
encrypted_x, encrypted_y = circuit.encrypt(2, 6)
encrypted_result = circuit.run(encrypted_x, encrypted_y)
result = circuit.decrypt(encrypted_result)

assert result == add(2, 6)

This example is explained in more detail in this part of the documentation.
