Abstract

Systems and methods for end-to-end encryption of a web browsing process are described herein. A web query is encrypted at a client using a homomorphic encryption scheme. The encrypted query is sent to a server where the encrypted query is evaluated over web content to generate an encrypted response without decrypting the encrypted query and without decrypting the response. The encrypted response is sent to the client where it is decrypted to obtain the results of the query without revealing the query or results to the owner of the web content, an observer, or an attacker.
