Abstract

With the prevalence of cloud computing, more and more data are outsourced to the untrusted cloud servers, which raises a security issue that how can data owners ensure the privacy of their data in cloud. A straightforward way is to encrypt the data before uploading, but it will face new challenge when data owners need to search on their encrypted data. Searchable encryption will help to solve this problem by enabling the cloud servers to perform searching for the data owners while not learning any information about the data and the searching criteria. Range query on large encrypted data set is one of the most dif cult parts of searchable encryption. In this paper, we proposed a novel scheme which improves the security and avoids any false positive. And the evaluation shows that our scheme reduces client storage and remain ef ciency compared with the existing schemes.
