Organizational and individual resource sharing is gaining significant attention in collaborative networks, focusing on the functioning of groups over various tasks. However, sharing sensitive data, such as personal information and intellectual property, makes security and privacy a big problem. This is work done in secure multi-party computation (SMPC), which is a very promising solution because, in SMPC, multiple parties can compute a certain function on their input data without revealing them to each other. Secure Multiparty Computation (SMPC) SMPC is a cryptographic technique that allows multiple parties to compute a function over their input data sets while keeping those inputs private. The promise of a new computing environment enabling everyone to calculate in the dark, so no one sees or even knows the data being processed exists, is achieved through sophisticated cryptographic algorithms and protocols that split the computation among partners without ever revealing the underlying data. In this abstract, we provide an overview of the state-of-the-art regarding SMPC for privacy preservation in collaborative networks. This paper highlights the challenges and opportunity areas in adopting Secure Multi-Party Computation within a collaborative networking ecosystem, along with the advantages of this methodology. It has also been SMPC, a great offer of real-world use to share information in health networks, financial transactions, and between organizations. In conclusion, this abstract highlights the significance of privacy preservation for collaborative networks and demonstrates that SMPC can be a potential candidate for realizing such a mechanism.
