Abstract
We revisit A.C. Yao´s classic problem of secure function computation by interactive communication, in an information theoretic setting. Our approach, based on examining the underlying common randomness, provides a new proof of the characterization of a securely computable function by deterministic protocols. This approach also yields a characterization of the minimum communication needed for secure computability.
