Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

The present invention relates to a technology for performing a database operation while keeping data secret.

BACKGROUND ART

In order to handle data safely, technologies called secure computation in which analysis is performed in a state in which encryption is performed have been studied.

Among them, encrypted database processing is considered in order to efficiently perform extraction of data that satisfies conditions, calculation of a total value, and the like in a state in which encryption is performed.

A group by operation that is a type of database (DB) processing is grouping processing in which a table is used as an input, grouping is performed for each value of a designated column, and in some cases, a statistical value for each group is calculated and output in a table format.

Non Patent Literature 1 proposes a method of performing a group by operation in a state in which encryption is performed. An input/output considered here is a table obtained by encrypting a normal table for each element.

On the other hand, in a case where database processing is performed in a state in which encryption is performed, it is conceivable that a flag indicating whether a certain record is an original output is added to the input/output unlike a normal table.

As data in which [·] is encrypted with k^→ set as a vector of a key, v^→ set as a vector of a value, and f^→ set as a vector of a flag, FIG. 15(a) illustrates an example of a normal unencrypted table, FIG. 15(b) illustrates an example of an encrypted table in Non Patent Literature 1, and FIG. 15(c) illustrates an example of a table to which flags are added.

In FIG. 15, “?” indicates that some value is inserted. In a case where the flag is 0, the value of the record is ignored, and thus the value of “?” is any value.

SUMMARY OF INVENTION

Technical Problem

In a case where the table to which the flags are added illustrated in FIG. 7(c) is input, an algorithm proposed in Non Patent Literature 1 does not function. This is because, in addition to the different input formats, it has been conventionally assumed that all records are meaningful values, and thus, for example, performing processing while skipping a record that is not used is not possible, and a value of “?” to be ignored affects the final result, and accordingly, the original result cannot be obtained.

An object of the present invention is to provide a secure computation system, device, method, and program that perform a group by max operation or a group by min operation on a table to which a flag is added.

DESCRIPTION OF EMBODIMENTS

Hereinafter, an embodiment of the present invention will be described in detail. In the drawings, components having the same functions are denoted by the same reference numerals, and redundant description will be omitted.

Note that the symbol “→” used in the sentences should be originally placed immediately above the character, but is placed immediately following the character due to limitations of text notation.

Encrypted data is written as [x], a vector is written as x^→=(x₁, . . . , x_n), and [x^→]=([x₁], . . . , [x_n]) is set. [x] is referred to as a ciphertext of x.

It is assumed that encryption is performed by a method in which the following operations can be performed in a state in which encryption is performed, such as secret sharing (for example, Reference Literature 1) or homomorphic encryption (for example, Reference Literature 2). Since different encryption may be used for values to be stored, in a case where · of a ciphertext [^→] is a bit value, the ciphertext [^→] may be described as [[^→]].

Furthermore, description of <π> may be used for permutation. · is any value or vector. Different encryption may be used for values to be stored. That is, all of the encryption may or may not be the same.

That is, [α] is a ciphertext of α with α set as any value or any vector, and <β> is a ciphertext of β with β set as any permutation.

<Reference Literature 2> Zvika Brakersk₁, Craig Gentry, and Vinod Vaikuntanathan. Fully homomorphic encryption without bootstrapping. Electronic Colloquium on Computational Complexity (ECCC), Vol. 18, p. 111, 2011.

It is assumed that secret sharing and homomorphic encryption are supported regarding addition/subtraction and constant multiplication. That is, it is assumed that relationship of c[a]±[b]±d=[ca+b±d] is established.

Multiplication can be calculated by a method described in Reference Literature 1 in a case of secret sharing, or by a homomorphic operation in a case of homomorphic encryption. Multiplication is described as [c]←Mult([a], [b]). Here, c=ab.

Stable sort is processing of rearranging an input [x^→]=([x₁], . . . , [x_n]) into [x′^→]=([x₁′], . . . , [x_n′]) such that x_i′<x_i+1′ is satisfied for i ∈{1, . . . , n−1}. However, when x_i′=x_i+1′ is satisfied, the original arrangement order of x^→ is prioritized.

Stable sort more specifically includes two algorithms (GENPERM, SORT).

GENPERM is a function that outputs a result obtained by encrypting permutation n for rearranging x^→. GENPERM is described as <π>←GENPERM([x^→])

SORT is a function that calculates x′^→ obtained by applying n to x^→ and performing rearrangement in a state in which encryption is performed. SORT is described as, for example, [x^→′]←SORT (<π>, [x^→]).

For simplicity of description, in a case of sorting each of a plurality of vectors using the same permutation, SORT is described as, for example, ([x′^→], [y′^→])←SORT (<π>, ([x^→], [y^→])).

An obvious configuration method of SORT is a method in which a sorting network is used. Furthermore, in a case of secret sharing, SORT can be efficiently performed by a method described in Reference Literature 3.

Equal sign determination EQ is a function that outputs a ciphertext [e] of e such that 1 is obtained when x=y is satisfied and 0 is obtained when x≠y is satisfied using [x], [y] as an input. EQ is described as, for example, [e]←EQ ([x], [y]). Here, e is 1 when x=y is satisfied, and is 0 when x≠y is satisfied.

In a case where equal sign determination of a plurality of elements is performed, EQ is described as, for example, [e]←EQ (([a], [b]), ([c], [d])). Here, e is 1 when a=c and b=d are satisfied or otherwise 0.

In general, if data is encrypted in bit representation, equal sign determination can be performed by circuit calculation being performed to determine whether each bit of [x−y] is 0. The circuit calculation can be performed by calculation by addition/subtraction and multiplication.

In a case where encryption is performed in integer representation, equal sign determination can be performed by change to bit representation being made using bit decomposition (see, for example, Reference Literature 4) and circuit calculation being performed in the same manner.

In addition, in a case where encryption is performed on mod p, equal sign determination can be performed even if [(x−y)^p−1] is calculated using multiplication.

IFTHEN is a function that receives a flag [f] (where f ∈{0,1}) and [x], [y] as inputs and outputs [x] when f=1 is satisfied and [y] when f=0 is satisfied. IFTHEN is described as, for example, [e]←IFTHEN([f]:[x], [y]). Here, e is x when f=1 is satisfied and is y when f=0 is satisfied.

IFTHEN can be implemented by, for example, Mult ([f], [x])+Mult ([1−f], [y]).

MODCONV is a function that generates [a] that is encryption of the same value but differs in the form of the ciphertext using encryption [[a]] of a bit value as an input. In other words, MODCONV is a function that generates a ciphertext [a] of a value in which a is represented in an integer using a ciphertext [[a]] of a bit value as an input. MODCONV is described as, for example, [a]←MODCONV([[a]]).

BITDECOMP is a function that generates [[a]] that is encryption of the same value in which a is represented in a bit but differs in the form of the ciphertext using encryption [a] of an integer value as an input. In other words, BITDECOMP is a function that generates a ciphertext [[a]] of a value in which a is represented in a bit using a ciphertext [[a]] of a bit value as an input. BITDECOMP is described as, for example, [[k^→]←BITDECOMP([k^→]). However, when k^→=(k₁, k₂, . . . , k_L) is satisfied, k=Σ_i=1^L2ⁱ⁻¹k_i is satisfied.

The number of records of a table to be processed by the secure computation system, device, method, and program is m. It is assumed that this table includes at least a ciphertext [k^→] of a vector k^→ of a key, a ciphertext [v^→] of a vector v^→ of a value, and a ciphertext [f^→] of a vector f^→ of a flag. It is assumed that elements of the ciphertext [f^→] are bit ciphertexts. If a bit does not appear, conversion into bits is performed by a bit decomposition protocol.

The table to be processed by the secure computation system, device, method, and program is illustrated in FIG. 7(a).

For example, a table illustrated in FIG. 7(b) is obtained from the table illustrated in FIG. 7(a) by a group by max operation by the secure computation system, device, method, and program. [k′′′^→] is a ciphertext of α vector k′′′^→ obtained by rearranging elements of the vector k^→ of a key. [x′^→] is a ciphertext of α vector x′^→ including maximum values of values. [e′′′^→] is a ciphertext of α vector e′′′^→ of a flag corresponding to the vector k′′′^→.

In FIG. 7(a), the maximum value of an element of the ciphertext [v^→] corresponding to a key of [1] of the ciphertext [k+] is [3], the maximum value of an element of the ciphertext [v^→] corresponding to a key of [2] of the ciphertext [k^→] is [1], and the maximum value of an element of the ciphertext [v^→] corresponding to a key of [4] of the ciphertext [k^→] is [5].

Therefore, in FIG. 7(b), an element of the ciphertext [x^→] corresponding to [1] of the ciphertext [k′′′^→] is [3], an element of the ciphertext [x′^→] corresponding to [2] of the ciphertext [k′′′^→] is [1], and an element of the ciphertext [x′^→] corresponding to [4] of the ciphertext [k′′′^→] is [5].

Furthermore, for example, a table illustrated in FIG. 7(c) is obtained from the table illustrated in FIG. 7(a) by a group by min operation by the secure computation system, device, method, and program. [k′′′^→] is a ciphertext of α vector k′′^→ obtained by rearranging elements of the vector k^→ of a key. [x′′^→] is a ciphertext of α vector x′′^→ including minimum values of values. [g′′^→] is a ciphertext of α vector g′′^→ of a flag corresponding to the vector k′′^→.

In FIG. 7(a), the minimum value of an element of the ciphertext [v^→] corresponding to a key of [1] of the ciphertext [k^→] is [3], the minimum value of an element of the ciphertext [v^→] corresponding to a key of [2] of the ciphertext [k^→] is [1], and the minimum value of an element of the ciphertext [v^→] corresponding to a key of [4] of the ciphertext [k^→] is [4].

Therefore, in FIG. 7(c), an element of the ciphertext [x′^→] corresponding to [1] of the ciphertext [k′′′^→] is [1], an element of the ciphertext [x′^→] corresponding to [2] of the ciphertext [k′′′^→] is [1], and an element of the ciphertext [x′^→] corresponding to [4] of the ciphertext [k′′′^→] is [4].

A configuration example of the secure computation system and method will be described with reference to FIG. 1. This secure computation system and method perform a so-called group by operation (group by max operation or group by min operation) by secure computation.

The secure computation system includes N (≥2) secure computation devices 1₁, . . . , 1_N. In the present embodiment, each of the secure computation devices 1₁, . . . , 1_N is connected to a communication network 2. The communication network 2 is a circuit-switching or packet-switching communication network configured such that the connected devices can perform communication with each other, and is, for example, the Internet, a local area network (LAN), a wide area network (WAN), or the like. Note that the devices do not necessarily need to perform online communication via the communication network 2. For example, information to be input to the secure computation devices 1₁, . . . , 1_N may be stored in a portable recording medium such as a magnetic tape or a USB memory, and the information may be input in an offline manner from the portable recording medium to the secure computation devices 1₁, . . . , 1_N.

The components of the secure computation device 1_n (1≤n≤N) perform processing of each step described below and illustrated in FIG. 8 or FIG. 14 in cooperation with components of another secure computation device 1_n′ (n′=1, . . . , N, provided that n≠n′ is satisfied), thereby implementing a secure concatenation method of the embodiment.

Note that the processing of each step is performed by secure computation. That is, the secure computation device 1_n performs the processing of each step without restoring a ciphertext, in other words, without knowing the content of a ciphertext.

The secure computation device 1_n is a special device configured such that a special program is loaded into a known or dedicated computer including, for example, a central processing unit (CPU), a main storage device (random access memory (RAM)), and the like. The secure computation device 1_n performs each piece of processing under control of the central processing unit, for example.

Data input into the secure computation device 1_n and data obtained in each piece of the processing are stored in, for example, the main storage device, and the data stored in the main storage device is read to the central processing unit as necessary and used for other processing. At least some of the components of the secure computation device 1_n may be configured by hardware such as an integrated circuit.

[Group by Max]

First, processing of each of the components of a secure computation device 1_n that performs a group by max operation will be described.

For example, as illustrated in FIG. 2, the secure computation device 1_n of the secure computation system that performs a group by max operation includes a first calculation unit 11_n, a second calculation unit 12_n, a third calculation unit 13_n, a fourth calculation unit 14_n, and an output unit 15_n.

<First Calculation Units 11₁, . . . , 11_N>

A ciphertext [f^→] of a vector f^→, a ciphertext [k^→] of a vector k^→, and a ciphertext [v^→] of a vector v^→ are input to a plurality of first calculation units 11₁, . . . , 11_N.

The plurality of first calculation units 11₁, . . . , 11_N generates a ciphertext [f′^→], a ciphertext [k′^→], and a ciphertext [v′^→] of a vector f′^→, a vector k′^→, and a vector v′^→ obtained by sorting the vector f^→, the vector k^→, and the vector v^→, respectively, with a vector obtained by concatenating the negative of the vector f^→, the vector k^→, and the vector v^→ set as a key, using the ciphertext [f^→] of the vector f^→, the ciphertext [k^→] of the vector k^→, and the ciphertext [v^→] of the vector v^→ (step S1).

This processing by the plurality of first calculation units 11₁, . . . , 11_N is implemented, for example, by processing from “1:” to “4:” in FIG. 3.

That is, the plurality of first calculation units 11₁, . . . , 11_N, for example, performs the following processing.

• • 1: ([[k^†→]], [[v^†→]])←BITDECOMP ([k], [v^→])
  • 2: [[f*^→]]←1−[[f^→]]
  • 3: <π>←GENPERM ([[f*^→]], [[k^†→]], [[v^†→]])
  • 4: ([[k′^→]], [k′^→], [v′^→], [[f′^→]])←SORT(<π>, ([[k^†→]], [k^→], [v^→], [[f^→])])

In the example of FIG. 3, a ciphertext [[f′^→]] is generated as the ciphertext [f′^→]. Furthermore, in the example of FIG. 3, a ciphertext [[k′^→]] and a ciphertext [k′^→] are generated as the ciphertext [k′^→].

Note that GENPERM ([[f*]], [[k^†→]], [[v^†→]]) means processing of generating a ciphertext <π> of permutation n that stably sorts a vector obtained by concatenating the vector f*^→, the vector k^†→, and the vector v^†→ for each element, using a ciphertext [[f*^→]], a ciphertext [[k^†→]] and a ciphertext [[v^†→]].

<Second Calculation Units 12₁, . . . , 12_N>

The ciphertext [f′^→] and the ciphertext [k′^→] is input to a plurality of second calculation units 12₁, . . . , 12_N.

The plurality of second calculation units 12₁, . . . , 12_N generates a ciphertext [e′^→] of a vector e′^→ including e_i (i=1, . . . , m) as an element by generating a ciphertext [e′_m] of e′_m such that e′_i=0 is satisfied when f′_i=1 and k′_i #k′_i+1 or f′_i=1 and f′_i+1=0 are satisfied or otherwise e′_i=1 is satisfied, and e′_m=0 is satisfied when f′_m=1 is satisfied or otherwise e′_m=1 is satisfied with i=1, . . . , m−1 set, using the ciphertext [f′^→] and the ciphertext [k′^→] (step S2).

This processing by the plurality of second calculation units 12₁, . . . , 12_N is implemented, for example, by processing from “5:” to “10:” in FIG. 3.

That is, the plurality of second calculation units 12₁, . . . , 12_N, for example, performs the following processing.

• • 5: each 1≤i≤m−1 do
  • 6: [[e_i]]←IFTHEN([[f′_i]]:EQ([[k′_i]], [[k′_i+1]]), [[1]])
  • 7: [[e′_i]]←IFTHEN([[f′_i]]XOR[[f′_i+1]]: [[0]], [[e_i]])
  • 8: [e′_i]←MODCONV ([[e′_i]])
  • 9: [[e′_m]]=1−[[f′_m]]
  • 10: [e′_m]←MODCONT ([[e′_m]])<Third Calculation Units 13₁, . . . , 13_N>

The ciphertext [e′^→] and the ciphertext [v′^→] is input to a plurality of third calculation units 13₁, . . . , 13_N.

The plurality of third calculation units 13₁, . . . , 13_N generates a ciphertext [x^→] of a vector x^→ including x_i(i=1, . . . , m) as an element by generating a ciphertext [x_i] of x_i having a value of v′_i when an element e′_i=0 is satisfied, the element e′_i being an element of the vector e′^→, and a value of 0 when an element e′_i=1 is satisfied, the element e′_i being an element of the vector e′^→, with i=1, . . . , m set, using the ciphertext [e′^→] and the ciphertext [v′^→] (step S3).

This processing by the plurality of third calculation units 13₁, . . . , 13_N is implemented, for example, by processing from “11:” to “12:” in FIG. 3.

That is, the plurality of third calculation units 13₁, . . . , 13_N, for example, performs the following processing.

• • 11: each 1≤i≤m do 12: [x_i]←IFTHEN([e′_i]:[0], [v′₁])<Fourth Calculation Units 14₁, . . . , 14_N>

The ciphertext [e′^→] is input to a plurality of fourth calculation units 14₁, . . . , 14_N.

The plurality of fourth calculation units 14₁, . . . , 14_N calculates the ciphertext [e′′′^→] of a vector e′′′^→ including a value obtained by subtracting each element of the vector e′^→ from 1, using the ciphertext [e′^→] (step S4).

This processing by the plurality of fourth calculation units 14₁, . . . , 14_N is implemented, for example, by processing of “13:” in FIG. 3.

That is, the plurality of fourth calculation units 14₁, . . . , 14_N, for example, performs the following processing.

• • 13: [[e′′′^→]]=1−[[e′^→]]<Output Units 15₁, . . . , 15_N>

The ciphertext [k′^→], the ciphertext [x^→], and the ciphertext [e′′′^→] are input to a plurality of output units 15₁, . . . , 15_N.

The plurality of output units 15₁, . . . , 15_N performs output in which the ciphertext [k′^→], the ciphertext [x^→], and the ciphertext [e′′′^→] are output (step S5).

Note that the secure computation devices 1₁, . . . , 1_N may perform so-called output sort processing. This output sort processing is implemented, for example, by processing from “13:” to “14:” in FIG. 4 performed by the plurality of fourth calculation units 14₁, . . . , 14_N.

That is, the plurality of fourth calculation units 14₁, . . . , 14_N may, for example, perform the following processing.

• • 13:<π>←GENPERM([[e′^→]])
  • 14: ([x′^→], [[e′′^→]], [k′′])←SORT (<n′>, ([x^→], [[e′^→]], [k′^→]))
  • 15: [[e′′′^→]]=1−[[e′′^→]]

In this case, the plurality of output units 15₁, . . . , 15_N outputs a ciphertext [k′′^→] instead of the ciphertext [k′^→], and outputs a ciphertext [x′^→] instead of the ciphertext [x^→].

Furthermore, the secure computation devices 1₁, . . . , 1_N may perform so-called null processing. This null processing is implemented, for example, by processing of “13:” in FIG. 5 performed by the plurality of third calculation units 13₁, . . . , 13_N.

That is, the plurality of third calculation units 13₁, . . . , 1^3N may, for example, perform the following processing.

• • 11: each 1≤i≤m do
  • 12: [x_i]←IFTHEN([e′_i]:[0], [v′₁])
  • 13: [k′′_i]←IFTHEN ([e′_i]: [null], [k′_i])

Processing of “11:” and “12:” in FIG. 5 is the same as processing of “11:” and “12:” in FIG. 3.

In this case, the plurality of output units 15₁, . . . , 15_N outputs a ciphertext [k′′^→] instead of the ciphertext [k′^→].

Furthermore, the secure computation devices 1₁, . . . , 1_N may perform so-called output sort processing and so-called null processing.

This null processing is implemented, for example, by processing of “13:” in FIG. 6 performed by the plurality of third calculation units 13₁, . . . , 13_N.

That is, the plurality of third calculation units 13₁, . . . , 13_N may, for example, perform the following processing.

• • 13: [k′′_i]←IFTHEN ([e′_i]: [null], [k′_i])

This output sort processing is implemented, for example, by processing from “14:” to “15:” in FIG. 6 performed by the plurality of fourth calculation units 14₁, . . . , 14_N.

  • 16:[e′′′^→]]=1−[[e′′^→]]

In this case, the plurality of output units 15₁, . . . , 15_N outputs a ciphertext [k′′^→] instead of the ciphertext [k′^→], and outputs a ciphertext [x′^→] instead of the ciphertext [x^→].

By the output sort processing and the null processing, for example, the ciphertext [k′′^→], the ciphertext [x′^→], and a ciphertext [[e′′′^→]] illustrated in FIG. 7(b) are obtained.

Note that the plurality of output units 15₁, . . . , 15_N may not output a ciphertext corresponding to a dummy record.

That is, the plurality of output units 15₁, . . . , 15_N may output a result obtained by deleting an element corresponding to an element indicating a dummy record among elements e_i′′′ of the vector e′′′^→ from the ciphertext [k′^→], the ciphertext [k′′^→], or the ciphertext [k′′′^→] and the ciphertext [x^→] or the ciphertext [x′^→], using the ciphertext [k′^→], the ciphertext [k′′^→], or the ciphertext [k′′′^→], the ciphertext [x^→] or the ciphertext [x′^→], and the ciphertext [[e′′′^→]].

In a case where the ciphertext [k′′′^→], the ciphertext [x′^→], and the ciphertext [[e′′′^→]] are, for example, those illustrated in FIG. 7(b), the plurality of output units 15₁, . . . , 15_N may output only elements of the ciphertext [k′′′^→] and the ciphertext [x′^→] corresponding to elements [1] of the ciphertext [[e′′′^→]]. That is, in this case, the plurality of output units 15₁, . . . , 15_N may output first to third elements of the ciphertext [k′′′^→] and the ciphertext [x′^→].

Note that records in which the ciphertext [[e′′′^→]] is [[0]] in FIG. 7(b), in other words, records in which the ciphertext [k′′′^→] is [null] are dummy records.

Next, processing of each of the components of a secure computation device 1_n that performs a group by min operation will be described.

For example, as illustrated in FIG. 9, the secure computation device 1_n of the secure computation system that performs a group by min operation includes a first calculation unit 11_n, a second calculation unit 12_n, a third calculation unit 13_n, a fourth calculation unit 14_n, and an output unit 15_n.

• • 1: ([[k^†→]], [[v′^→]])←BITDECOMP ([k^→], [v^→])
  • 2: [[f*^→]]←1−[[f^→] ]
  • 3: <π>←GENPERM ([[f*^→]], [[k^†→]], [[v^†→]])
  • 4: ([[k′^→]], [k′^→], [v′^→], [[f′^→]]))<SORT (<π>, ([[k^†→]], [k^→][v^→], [[f^→]]))

In the example of FIG. 10, a ciphertext [[f′^→]] is generated as the ciphertext [f′^→]. Furthermore, in the example of FIG. 3, a ciphertext [[k′^→]] and a ciphertext [k′^→] are generated as the ciphertext [k′^→].

Note that GENPERM ([[f^→]], [[k^†→]], [[v^†→]]) means processing of generating a ciphertext <π> of permutation n that stably sorts a vector obtained by concatenating the vector f*^→, the vector k^†→, and the vector v^†→ for each element, using a ciphertext [[f*]], a ciphertext [[k^†→]] and a ciphertext [[v^†→]].

• • (9: each 1≤i≤m do)
  • 12: [x_i]←IFTHEN ([g_i]: [0], [v′_i])

Since the processing of “12:” in FIG. 10 is included in repetitive processing starting from “9:” in FIG. 10, processing of “9:” in FIG. 10 (in parentheses) is also indicated above.

<Output Units 15₁, . . . , 15_N>

The ciphertext [k′^→], the ciphertext [x^→], and the ciphertext [g′^→] are input to a plurality of output units 15₁, . . . , 15_N.

The plurality of output units 15₁, . . . , 15_N performs output in which the ciphertext [k′^→], the ciphertext [x^→], and the ciphertext [g′^→] are output (step S5).

Note that the secure computation devices 1₁, . . . , 1_N may perform so-called output sort processing. This output sort processing is implemented, for example, by processing from “13:” to “15:” in FIG. 11 performed by the plurality of fourth calculation units 14₁, . . . , 14_N.

In this case, the plurality of output units 15₁, . . . , 15_N outputs a ciphertext [k′′^→] instead of the ciphertext [k′^→], outputs a ciphertext [x′^→] instead of the ciphertext [x^→], and outputs a ciphertext [g′′^→] instead of the ciphertext [g′^→].

Furthermore, the secure computation devices 1₁, . . . , 1_N may perform so-called null processing. This null processing is implemented, for example, by processing of “13:” in FIG. 12 performed by the plurality of third calculation units 13₁, . . . , 13_N.

Since the processing of “13:” in FIG. 12 is included in the repetitive processing starting from “9:” in FIG. 10, processing of “9:” in FIG. 12 (in parentheses) is also indicated above.

In this case, the plurality of output units 15₁, . . . , 15_N outputs a ciphertext [k′′^→] instead of the ciphertext [k′^→].

Furthermore, the secure computation devices 1₁, . . . , 1_N may perform so-called output sort processing and so-called null processing.

This null processing is implemented, for example, by processing of “13:” in FIG. 13 performed by the plurality of third calculation units 13₁, . . . , 13_N.

That is, the plurality of third calculation units 13₁, . . . , 13_N may perform the following processing.

• • (9: each 1≤i≤m do)
  • 13: [k′′_i]←IFTHEN([g′_i]: [null], [k′_i])

Since the processing of “13:” in FIG. 13 is included in repetitive processing starting from “9:” in FIG. 13, processing of “9:” in FIG. 13 (in parentheses) is also indicated above.

By the output sort processing and the null processing, for example, the ciphertext [k′′′^→], the ciphertext [x′^→], and a ciphertext [[g′′^→]] illustrated in FIG. 7(c) are obtained.

Note that the plurality of output units 15₁, . . . , 15_N may not output a ciphertext corresponding to a dummy record.

In a case where the ciphertext [k′′′^→], the ciphertext [x′^→], and the ciphertext [[g′′^→]] are, for example, those illustrated in FIG. 7(c), the plurality of output units 15₁, . . . , 15_N may output only elements of the ciphertext [k′′′^→] and the ciphertext [x′^→] corresponding to elements [1] of the ciphertext [[g′′^→]]. That is, in this case, the plurality of output units 15₁, . . . , 15_N may output first to third elements of the ciphertext [k′′′^→] and the ciphertext [x′^→].

Accordingly, group by max/min can be achieved without decoding by dummy records being set as the least significant records by the negative of dummy flags being arranged in the most significant bits and sorting being performed, and by if statement processing in which a boundary is not established when the flag is 0 being added to a boundary determination bit of a group and if statement processing being similarly added when a flag one record before is used in processing of min.

[Modifications]

While the embodiment of the present invention has been described above, specific configurations are not limited to the embodiment, and it is needless to say that appropriate design changes, and the like are included in the present invention without deviating from the gist of the present invention.

The various types of processing described in the embodiment may be performed not only in chronological order in accordance with the described order, but also in parallel or individually depending on the processing capability of a device that performs the processing or as necessary.

For example, data exchange between the components of a secure computation device may be performed directly or via a storage unit (not illustrated).

[Program and Recording Medium]

The processing of each unit of each of the devices described above may be implemented by a computer, in which case, processing content of a function that each of the devices should have is described by a program. By causing a storage unit 1020 of a computer 1000 illustrated in FIG. 16 to read this program and causing an arithmetic processing unit 1010, an input unit 1030, an output unit 1040, and the like to perform the program, various processing functions in each of the devices described above are implemented on the computer.

The program in which the processing content is described can be recorded in a computer-readable recording medium. The computer-readable recording medium is, for example, a non-transitory recording medium and is specifically a magnetic recording device, an optical disc, or the like.

Further, the program is distributed by, for example, selling, transferring, or renting a portable recording medium such as a DVD and a CD-ROM in which the program is recorded. A configuration in which the program is stored in a storage device in a server computer and the program is distributed by transferring the program from the server computer to other computers via a network may also be employed.

For example, the computer that performs such a program first temporarily stores the program recorded in a portable recording medium or the program transferred from the server computer in an auxiliary recording unit 1050 that is a non-transitory storage device of the computer. Then, at the time of performing processing, the computer reads the program stored in the auxiliary recording unit 1050 that is the non-temporary storage device of the computer into the storage unit 1020 and performs processing in accordance with the read program. In addition, as another embodiment of the program, the computer may directly read the program from the portable recording medium into the storage unit 1020 and perform processing in accordance with the program, and furthermore, the computer may sequentially perform processing in accordance with a received program each time the program is transferred from the server computer to the computer. In addition, the above-described processing may be performed by a so-called application service provider (ASP) type service that implements a processing function only by a performance instruction and result acquisition without transferring the program from the server computer to the computer. The program in the present embodiment includes information used for processing of an electronic computer and equivalent to the program (data or the like that is not a direct command to the computer but has a property of defining processing of the computer).

Although the present devices are each configured by performing a predetermined program on a computer in the present embodiment, at least part of the processing content may be implemented by hardware.

In addition, it is needless to say that modifications can be appropriately made without departing from the gist of the present invention.
