Research done as part of my MSc thesis in the Privacy-Preserving Systems Lab and the Applied Cryptography Group at ETH Zurich
Poster presented at the 5th Homomorphic Encryption Standards Meeting, September 1-2, 2022, at ITU-T, Geneva (Switzerland)

We survey existing approaches to provide integrity guarantees for FHE applications, and show that they fall short for real-world use cases and security models. To remediate this, we introduce new integrity properties and sketch generic constructions to achieve them.
