Everything around OpenFHE: releases, notable GitHub issues and pull requests, papers and benchmarks that use it, applications built on it, talks, workshops and events, and what its maintainers and community are working on.
A course project repo by dpatel-sec demonstrating FHE with OpenFHE's BFV scheme in Python: encrypted feature vectors, a plaintext-vs-FHE benchmark, and a hybrid Hugging Face distilgpt2 demo. A bonus client-server pipeline has the server score encrypted input while only the client decrypts. In the recorded run, encrypted and plaintext results matched exactly, but homomorphic operations were significantly slower.
Also in github.comMerged openfhe-development PR #1365 by yspolyakov fixes single-iteration CKKS bootstrapping with a UNIFORM_TERNARY secret, which gave wrong values (absolute error ~0.3) at a 50-bit scaling factor with a 60-bit first modulus. The overflow bound K is now folded into the CoeffsToSlots matrix at setup, leaving the runtime scalar an exact power of two. The PR also makes bootstrapping lookups throw on precomputations from a different variant (regular, FBT, FEFBT) and adds new tests.
Also in github.comfrostbitwolf/ATH-FHE-MIDDLEWARE is a GitHub repo describing an enterprise-grade C++ zero-trust multi-cloud middleware that uses OpenFHE's CKKS scheme for blind computation on encrypted data. It has 0 stars and 0 forks, and the repo includes an openfhe-development folder.
