One of the most significant advances in cryptography in recent years is certainly the introduction of the first fully homomorphic encryption scheme by Craig Gentry. This type of cryptosystem allows performing arbitrarily complex computations on encrypted data, without decrypting it. This particularity allows meeting the requirements of security and data protection, for example in the context of the rapid development of cloud computing and the internet of things. The algorithms implemented are currently very time-consuming, and most of them are implemented in software. This thesis deals with the hardware acceleration of homomorphic encryption schemes. A study of the primitives used by these schemes and the possibility of their hardware imple...
