Method for performing a preprocessing computation during a proactive mpc process

Abstract

The subject matter discloses computer-implemented method performed during a multi-party computation (MPC) process performed between multiple parties, said method comprising, the multiple parties executing a pre-processing phase and obtain values of correlated random variables to be used in an MPC process, the parties periodically verifying the correctness of the correlated random variables by exchanging information between the multiple parties, refreshing the values of the correlated random variables in each of the multiple parties, wherein no party of the multiple parties has access to values of the correlated random variables stored in another party of the multiple parties during the verifying and refreshing processes, the multiple parties using the correlated random variables during the MPC process after verifying a correctness of the correlated random variables.
