US Patent 11586743 Secure data processing

A first system creates and sends encryption key data to multiple data sources. A second system receives data encrypted using the encryption key data from the multiple data sources; the data may include noise data such that, even if decrypted, the original data cannot be discovered. Because the encryption is additively homomorphic, the second system may create encrypted summation data using the encrypted data. The first system separately receives the noise data encrypted using the same technique as the encrypted data. The second system may send the encrypted summation data to the first system, which may then remove the noise data from the encrypted summation data to create unencrypted summation data.
