In the last few years, there has been significant interest in developing methods to search
over encrypted data. In the case of range queries, a simple solution is to encrypt the contents …

Order-preserving encryption (OPE) is a cryptographic primitive that preserves the order of
plaintexts. In the past few years, many OPE schemes were proposed to solve the problem of …

Semantic-security of individual plaintext bits given the corresponding ciphertext is a
fundamental notion in modern cryptography. We initiate the study of this basic problem for …

Functional Encryption (FE) is an exciting new paradigm that extends the notion of public key
encryption. In this work we explore the security of Inner Product Functional Encryption …

It is now cost-effective to outsource large dataset and perform query over the cloud.
However, in this scenario, there exist serious security and privacy issues that sensitive …

Security auditing allows cloud tenants to verify the compliance of cloud infrastructure with
respect to desirable security properties, eg, whether a tenant's virtual network is properly …

This book comprehensively reviews searchable encryption, which represents a series of
research developments that directly enable search functionality over encrypted data. The …

This study introduces an innovative framework named scale for processing dynamic skyline
queries securely in cloud environments. Unlike previous approaches that require complex …

Order-preserving encryption (OPE) is a symmetric encryption that ciphertexts preserve
numerical ordering of the corresponding plaintexts. It allows various applications to search …
