| contents | We reply to the comments on our proposed privacy preserving n-party scalar product protocol made by Liu. In their comment Liu raised concerns regarding the security and scalability of the $n$-party scalar product protocol. In this reply, we show that their concerns are unfounded and that the $n$-party scalar product protocol is safe for its intended purposes. Their concerns regarding the security are based on a misunderstanding of the protocol. Additionally, while the scalability of the protocol puts limitations on its use, the protocol still has numerous practical applications when applied in the correct scenarios. Specifically within vertically partitioned scenarios, which often involve few parties, the protocol remains practical. In this reply we clarify Liu's misunderstanding. Additionally, we explain why the protocols scaling is not a practical problem in its intended application. |
