Encryption processing apparatus and encryption processing method
An encryption processing apparatus processes a fully homomorphic ciphertext and includes a processor performing the following processes. The processor performs a homomorphic operation involved in an operation for transforming coordinates of a point on a plane from orthogonal coordinates to polar coordinates with respect to a ciphertext and applies a predetermined polynomial to obtain a new ciphertext. The processor obtains a new ciphertext corresponding to a square of an x-coordinate value of the point by using a first polynomial, obtains a new ciphertext corresponding to a square of a y-coordinate value of the point by using a second polynomial, and applies a predetermined polynomial to a ciphertext obtained by a homomorphic operation between the new ciphertext corresponding to the square of the x-coordinate value and the new ciphertext corresponding to the square of the y-coordinate value, to obtain a ciphertext corresponding to a distance of the point from the origin.
