Opaque Systems | Kisaco Research

 

Opaque makes confidential data useful by enabling secure analytics and machine learning on encrypted data. With Opaque Systems, you can analyze encrypted data in the cloud using popular tools like Apache Spark, while ensuring that your data is never exposed unencrypted to anybody else — not the cloud provider, not system administrators with root access, not even to Opaque. Run arbitrary SQL queries, complex analytics, and ETL pipelines on encrypted data loaded from multiple sources.

By combining encrypted data from several sources and training models on the joint dataset, you can generate insights that would otherwise be impossible. Our product enables secure collaboration with partners, data providers, data processors, different business units, and 3rd parties. The data remains encrypted from your storage system all the way to the cloud platform’s CPU run-time memory. Data owners can upload encrypted data and then jointly apply analytics models directly to the encrypted data. Each data owner retains full control over how their data is used.
