As I have said, encrypted data storage in the cloud holds an important added value compared with other cloud applications: homomorphic search. An interesting use case of CSE applied to blockchain is blind payments. Here, the holomorphic search engine has the important function of listing the system’s client anonymously and securely processing transactions. In the healthcare field, two applications adopting CSE have already been tested: the management of electronic health records (EHRs) in the cloud and CovidFree. Going a little bit deeper, CSE technology enables data search and big data analysis in EHR systems while preserving patients’ security and privacy. CovidFree is an application patented in 2020 to fight the COVID-19 pandemic that maintains the privacy and security of data to monitor the virus. This application monitors and virtually...
