What is Multi-Party Computation?

We know how to secure data in storage using E2EE, but is it possible to ensure data privacy even while processing it server-side? This is the first in a series of articles Privacy Guides team member @fria be publishing, covering the privacy-enhancing technologies being rolled out in various products.

with the help of @vegetables i finally got it working. i had two off-by-ones, and i was messing up the generation of the commitments. \o/ robust updatable threshold oprfs here i come! expect some code hitting the liboprf repo soon.

Signature size discrepancy for MPC in the Head signature

I have been puzzled by the following for a long time. In the (very well know in the field) paper: Improved Non-Interactive Zero Knowledge with Applications to Post-Quantum Signatures , the authors

Why not substitute division of a public value by multiplication to its reciprocal?

MPC protocols have a harder time handling division (truncation) than multiplication. The case I am considering is when the divisor is a public value. Dividing it may lead to a wrong result due to

Secure Multi-Party Computation (SMPC), as described by Wikipedia, is a subset of cryptography to create methods for multiple users to jointly compute a function over their inputs while keeping those inputs private. A significant benefit of Secure Multi-Party Computation is that it preserves data privacy while making it usable and open for analysis.
