📒 Documentation | 💛 Community support | 📚 FHE resources by Zama

TFHE-rs is a pure Rust implementation of TFHE for boolean and integer arithmetics over encrypted data.

It includes:

• a Rust API
• a C API
• and a client-side WASM API

TFHE-rs is designed for developers and researchers who want full control over what they can do with TFHE, while not having to worry about the low-level implementation. The goal is to have a stable, simple, high-performance, and production-ready library for all the advanced features of TFHE.

• Low-level cryptographic library that implements Zama’s variant of TFHE, including programmable bootstrapping
• Implementation of the original TFHE boolean API that can be used as a drop-in replacement for other TFHE libraries
• Short integer API that enables exact, unbounded FHE integer arithmetics with up to 8 bits of message space
• Size-efficient public key encryption
• Ciphertext and server key compression for efficient data transfer
• Full Rust API, C bindings to the Rust High-Level API, and client-side Javascript API using WASM.

To use the latest version of TFHE-rs in your project, you first need to add it as a dependency in your Cargo.toml:

• For x86_64-based machines running Unix-like OSes:

tfhe = { version = "*", features = ["boolean", "shortint", "integer", "x86_64-unix"] }

• For Apple Silicon or aarch64-based machines running Unix-like OSes:

tfhe = { version = "*", features = ["boolean", "shortint", "integer", "aarch64-unix"] }

• For x86_64-based machines with the rdseed instruction running Windows:

tfhe = { version = "*", features = ["boolean", "shortint", "integer", "x86_64"] }

Here is a full example:

use tfhe::prelude::*;
use tfhe::{generate_keys, set_server_key, ConfigBuilder, FheUint32, FheUint8};

fn main() -> Result<(), Box<dyn std::error::Error>> {
    // Basic configuration to use homomorphic integers
    let config = ConfigBuilder::default().build();

    // Key generation
    let (client_key, server_keys) = generate_keys(config);

    let clear_a = 1344u32;
    let clear_b = 5u32;
    let clear_c = 7u8;

    // Encrypting the input data using the (private) client_key
    // FheUint32: Encrypted equivalent to u32
    let mut encrypted_a = FheUint32::try_encrypt(clear_a, &client_key)?;
    let encrypted_b = FheUint32::try_encrypt(clear_b, &client_key)?;

    // FheUint8: Encrypted equivalent to u8
    let encrypted_c = FheUint8::try_encrypt(clear_c, &client_key)?;

    // On the server side:
    set_server_key(server_keys);

    // Clear equivalent computations: 1344 * 5 = 6720
    let encrypted_res_mul = &encrypted_a * &encrypted_b;

    // Clear equivalent computations: 6720 >> 5 = 210
    encrypted_a = &encrypted_res_mul >> &encrypted_b;

    // Clear equivalent computations: let casted_a = a as u8;
    let casted_a: FheUint8 = encrypted_a.cast_into();

    // Clear equivalent computations: min(210, 7) = 7
    let encrypted_res_min = &casted_a.min(&encrypted_c);

    // Operation between clear and encrypted data:
    // Clear equivalent computations: 7 & 1 = 1
    let encrypted_res = encrypted_res_min & 1_u8;

    // Decrypting on the client side:
    let clear_res: u8 = encrypted_res.decrypt(&client_key);
    assert_eq!(clear_res, 1_u8);

    Ok(())
}

Security estimations are done using the Lattice Estimator with red_cost_model = reduction.RC.BDGL16.

When a new update is published in the Lattice Estimator, we update parameters accordingly.

The default parameters for the TFHE-rs library are chosen considering the IND-CPA security model, and are selected with a bootstrapping failure probability fixed at p_error = $2^{-40}$. In particular, it is assumed that the results of decrypted computations are not shared by the secret key owner with any third parties, as such an action can lead to leakage of the secret encryption key. If you are designing an application where decryptions must be shared, you will need to craft custom encryption parameters which are chosen in consideration of the IND-CPA^D security model [1].

Mitigation for side-channel attacks has not yet been implemented in TFHE-rs, and will be released in upcoming versions.
