Privacy Enhancing Technologies
Funds cryptographic and privacy-preserving technologies that let organisations share and analyse sensitive data without exposing it.
Privacy Enhancing Technologies is an ECCC (European Cybersecurity Competence Centre) call, worth EUR 3-4 million per project, that funds development of privacy-enhancing technologies such as secure multiparty computation, differential privacy, homomorphic encryption and advanced digital signatures, aimed at federated data sharing, threat-intelligence sharing and GDPR-compliant European data spaces…
The ECCC wants development of privacy-enhancing technologies such as secure multiparty computation, differential privacy, homomorphic encryption and advanced digital signatures, aimed at federated data sharing, threat-intelligence sharing and GDPR-compliant European data spaces. It wants attention to quantum-resistant, crypto-agile designs and to usability for constrained devices.
