HElib is a software library that implements homomorphic encryption (HE). Currently available schemes are the implementations of the Brakerski-Gentry-Vaikuntanathan (BGV) scheme with bootstrapping and the Approximate Number scheme of Cheon-Kim-Kim-Song (CKKS), along with many optimizations to make homomorphic evaluation run faster, focusing mostly on effective use of the Smart-Vercauteren ciphertext packing techniques and the Gentry-Halevi-Smart optimizations. See this report for a description of a few of the algorithms using in this library.
