ZERO KNOWLEDGE PROOF GENERATION FOR SENSING DEVICES

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18904889 titled 'ZERO KNOWLEDGE PROOF GENERATION FOR SENSING DEVICES

Original Abstract Submitted

A method comprising: acquiring sensed data; obtaining public data shared with a Zero Knowledge Proof, ZKP, verifier device; applying a logic function to the sensed data to determine whether a statement concerning the sensed data is verified or not, wherein the logic function is shared with the ZKP verifier device; generating a ZKP that the statement is true by applying a ZKP generation algorithm to the public data and private data using the logic function, the private data including the sensed data; deleting the sensed data once the ZKP has been generated; sending the ZKP to the ZKP verifier device; wherein deleting the sensed data is performed before sending the ZKP to the ZKP verifier device.
