Abstract

A homomorphic encryption apparatus and a ciphertext arithmetic method thereof are disclosed. The homomorphic encryption apparatus includes a re-encryption parameter generation circuit, a re-encryption circuit, and an arithmetic circuit. The re-encryption parameter generation circuit is configured to generate re-encryption parameters including a plurality of re-encryption levels for a plurality of ciphertexts, respectively, based on an arithmetic scenario including information on an arithmetic schedule between the plurality of ciphertexts. The re-encryption circuit is configured to generate a plurality of re-encrypted ciphertexts by re-encrypting each of the plurality of ciphertexts to a corresponding re-encryption level based on the re-encryption parameters. The arithmetic circuit is configured to output an arithmetic result by performing an operation using the plurality of re-encrypted ciphertexts according to the arithmetic scenario.
