Optalysys partnership news – Optalysys has Partnered with Open Source Crypto Company Zama

FHE is a powerful encryption method that lets encrypted data be processed without ever being decrypted. This helps organizations keep data private while enabling safe collaboration across industries, even in untrusted environments.

The partnership will integrate Zama’s FHE solution with Optalysys’ hardware product, Enable, to speed up the adoption of FHE for customers.

The goal is to make FHE easier to use by addressing its high computational demands.

Zama’s software includes encrypted machine learning and better privacy for blockchain smart contracts. Current cybersecurity methods struggle to protect data while it's being used, which is why privacy-enhancing technologies (PETs) like FHE are essential for companies to safeguard sensitive data.

CEO Dr Nick New said: “Our partnership with Zama is a significant step for us as we continue to accelerate the development of FHE. Historically scaling FHE applications has been a challenge due to its demand for specialist infrastructure and computing power. Our work with Zama aims to overcome this barrier and enable us to develop this revolutionary technology at a rapid pace.”

Rand Hindi, CEO at Zama, commented: “At Zama, our mission is to equip developers with the best FHE tools — tools that are easy to use, practical, and fast. Our collaboration with Optalysys is an exciting step toward making FHE faster, a crucial milestone in our journey to make this technology ubiquitous. “We believe that this acceleration benefits machine learning applications and is equally transformative in the blockchain space, a key focus for us, where FHE has the unique ability to resolve the long-standing tension between transparency and confidentiality, unlocking new possibilities for privacy-preserving innovation onchain."

About Zama

Zama believes privacy should not be a concern, not because it doesn't matter, but because it should be a given. With data breaches, cloud surveillance, and blockchain smart contracts making everything public, keeping things private online is getting more difficult.
