Use proxy re-encryption in the centralised deployment model #523

Open pepae opened 6 years ago

pepae commented 6 years ago

In end-to-end encrypted cases, couldn't you use proxy re-encryption (like e.g. here https://github.com/nucypher) in the centralised deployment model to avoid having to trust the Hosting Entity? Or am I missing something?

Hi Luis, sorry to respond late, we're catching up on issues. I'm not sure if anyone on the project is familiar with this approach or how to integrate it with existing APIs. I created a Feature Request label and added to this.
