Privacy-preserving multi-keyword fuzzy search over encrypted data in the cloud

Abstract

Enabling keyword search directly over encrypted data is a desirable technique for effective utilization of encrypted data outsourced to the cloud. Existing solutions provide multi-keyword exact search that does not tolerate keyword spelling error, or single keyword fuzzy search that tolerates typos to certain extent. The current fuzzy search schemes rely on building an expanded index that covers possible keyword misspelling, which lead to significantly larger index file size and higher search complexity. In this paper, we propose a novel multi-keyword fuzzy search scheme by exploiting the locality-sensitive hashing technique. Our proposed scheme achieves fuzzy matching through algorithmic design rather than expanding the index file. It also eliminates the need of a predefined dictionary and effectively supports multiple keyword fuzzy search without increasing the index or search complexity. Extensive analysis and experiments on real-world data show that our proposed scheme is secure, efficient and accurate. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first work that achieves multi-keyword fuzzy search over encrypted cloud data.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
