Abstract

The issues of privacy and reliability of personal data are of paramount importance. If L is a list of people carrying some harmful defective gene, questions as to whether a person is in L should be answered without compromising the data concerning anybody else. Reliability means that once the list is formed, nobody can play with the answer. Thus, the answer should be checkable by the agent posing the question. An efficient protocol for this task is presented, and the solution has a very strong protection properties.
