At first glance, processing of encrypted signals seems like an oxymoron: once signals are encrypted the necessary information to do any meaningful processing is obscured. Fortunately this contradiction is only seemingly, and there is a growing community of researchers exploring and discovering new methods to manipulate encrypted signals.

In March 2013, the IEEE Signal Processing Magazine brings you a special issue on signal processing in the encrypted domain (SPED).
