Prio: Privacy-Preserving Statistical Aggregation Techniques

This lecture explores 'Prio', a system presented at NSDI '17 by Stanford researchers, focusing on private statistics using innovative cryptographic methods. It addresses privacy risks in data collection, surpassing differential privacy while ensuring scalability and robustness. Key contributions include Secret-shared Non-Interactive Proofs and Affine-Aggregatable Encodings, alongside a scalable client-server architecture. The system is pivotal for applications in telemetry, aggregate data...
