  Confidential Computing & Privacy Preserving Data Analysis Intern

  I conducted a feasibility analysis and assisted in implementing a proof-of-concept software-based Confidential Computing technology leveraging Multiparty Homomorphic Encryption (MHE) for the insurance industry. For this, I worked closely with the development team at EPFL and the business team at Swiss Re Institute to meet technical requirements and industry needs.My work showed that multiple data providers (e.g., insurers) could benefit from collaboration to enhance the quality of their predictions without sharing their respective data and suggested further development paths that could lead to the actual adoption of the technology.More at https://xavier.pantet.ch/master-thesis.
