The essence of zero-knowledge proofs is that, while it is trivial to prove that 
one possesses knowledge of certain information by simply revealing it; the 
challenge is to prove such possession without revealing the information itself 
or any additional information

How do you access the contents of a safe without ever opening its lock or 
otherwise getting inside? 
This riddle may seem confounding, but its digital equivalent is now so solvable 
that it’s becoming a business plan. IBM is the latest innovator to tackle the 
well-studied cryptographic technique called fully homomorphic encryption (FHE), 
which allows for the processing of encrypted files without ever needing to 
decrypt them first.
