Hybrid homomorphic encryption (a.k.a., transciphering) can alleviate the ciphertext size expansion inherent to fully homomorphic encryption by integrating a specific symmetric encryption scheme, which requires selected symmetric encryption scheme that can be efficiently evaluated homomorphically. While there has been a recent surge in the development of FHE-friendly ciphers, concerns have arisen regarding their security. A significant challenge for the transciphering community remains the efficient evaluation of symmetric encryption algorithms that have undergone extensive study and standardization. In this paper, we present an evaluation framework, dubbed Thunderbird, which for the first time presents efficient homomorphic implementations of stream ciphers SNOW 3G and ZUC that are standardized in the 3G Partnership Project (3GPP). Specifically, Thunderbird combines gate bootstrapping mode and leveled evaluation mode of TFHE to cater to various function types within symmetric encryption algorithms. In the gate bootstrapping mode, we propose a variant of the homomorphic full adder that consumes only a single blind rotation, which may be of independent interest. In the leveled evaluation mode, we employ the CMux gate combining with hybrid packing technique to efficiently achieve lookup tables, significantly reducing the need for gate bootstrapping, and adapt the current optimal circuit bootstrapping to expedite the Thunderbird framework. We have implemented the Thunderbird framework in the TFHEpp public library. Experimental results demonstrate that SNOW 3G and ZUC can homomorphically generate a keyword in only 7 seconds and 9.5 seconds, which are 52x and 32x faster than the trivial gate bootstrapping mode, respectively. For the homomorphic evaluation of the AES-128 algorithm using Thunderbird, we achieve a speedup of 1.9x in terms of latency and use less evaluation key compared to the state-of-the-art work. |
