PROgramming Computation on EncryptEd Data (PROCEED)
To perform arbitrary computations on encrypted data without decryption,
preserving confidentiality even on untrustworthy computational infrastructure.
What if all computation could be
done on encrypted data?
• System hardware and software
provenance concerns reduced
• Data provenance and availability
remain concerns
Program Overview/Approach
The problem of computing on encrypted data was posed as an open question in 1978
Secure multi-party computation (SMC) solutions were invented in the 1980s, but
efficiency remains a problem today
The first (theoretical) fully homomorphic encryption (FHE) scheme was
invented in 2009
PROCEED is searching for efficient implementations of SMC or FHE approaches
that can be implemented on modern computing hardware

Objective:
Deep web content
behind forms and
redirects
• Domain specific search
Approach:
Temporary
pages
• Develop the next generation of search
technologies to revolutionize the discovery,
organization, and presentation of domainspecific content
• Create a new domain specific search
paradigm to discover relevant content and
organize it in ways that are more
immediately useful to specific missions and
tasks
Organizational
Structure
Web-domains with shared
content
• Extend the reach of current search
capabilities to the deep web and nontraditional content
• Enable the military, government, and
commercial enterprises to find and organize
mission-critical information on the Internet
and in large DoD repositories

Doing business with DARPA…
• Become familiar with the challenges and opportunities of National Security.
• Put your ideas in writing. Draft a white paper.
• Approach a program manager; they are the key to working with DARPA.
• Look for Requests for Proposals (RFPs) and Broad Agency Announcement
(BAAs) solicitations at www.darpa.mil, www.darpa.mil/sbpo, or
www.fbo.gov.
• Think boldly. Embrace risk.
