PySyft is a Python library for secure, private Deep Learning. PySyft decouples private data from model training, using [Multi-Party Computation (MPC)](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Secure_multi-party_computation) within PyTorch. Join the movement on [Slack](http://slack.openmined.org/).

## PySyft in Detail

A more detailed explanation of PySyft can be found in the [paper on arxiv](https://arxiv.org/abs/1811.04017)

PySyft has also been explained in video form by [Siraj Ravel](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=39hNjnhY7cY&feature=youtu.be&a=)

## Installation

> PySyft supports Python >= 3.6 and PyTorch 1.0.0

`bash pip3 install -r requirements.txt python3 setup.py install ` ## Run Local Notebook Server All the examples can be played with by running the command `bash make notebook ` and selecting the pysyft kernel
