Zama Product Releases - April 2024

This month, our team at Zama released a new version of TFHE-rs (v0.6), alongside new versions of Concrete (v2.6), Concrete ML (v1.5) and the fhEVM (v0.4). With these releases, Zama continues to build its suite of products to make homomorphic encryption accessible, easy, and fast.

TFHE-rs v0.6

This new version of Zama's TFHE-rs introduces a cryptographic technique known as Zero-Knowledge Proofs that complements FHE. Additionally, this version enhances GPU support for arithmetic operations with signed integer operations. Furthermore, it introduces additional cryptographic features, such as the generation of encrypted randomness.

Besides these enhancements in Zama’s libraries, we have worked to improve our developer resources and restructured all Zama documentations in order to create a more intuitive coding experience. In the next quarter, more efforts will be put into improving the readability of technical content. In the meantime, let us know how we can do better by taking our 5-question developer survey.
