...Developed by the Cryptography and Privacy Research group at Microsoft, it enables software engineers to build end-to-end encrypted data storage and computation services that never have to procure the customer's key. Microsoft SEAL is very easy to use, compile and run in many different environments. Homomorphic encryption is an encryption scheme that allows the cloud to compute directly on the encrypted data, without requiring the data to be decrypted first. This results in encrypted computations remaining encrypted, decrypted only by the data owner using the secret key.

...A secret key is used to encrypt a session key, create a digital signature and to certify public keys. The system uses symetric encryption algorithm with a session key to encrypt messages. Shoup’s threshold signature scheme has been used for cooperative signing and also for cooperative decryption.
