Public Key Encryption with Keyword Search for Restricted Testability
Jieun Eom, Hyun-Sook Rhee, Donghoon Lee · Information Security and Cryptology · 2011
To provide efficient keyword search on encrypted data, a public key encryption with keyword search (PEKS) was proposed by Boneh et al. A sender encrypts an e-mail and keywords with receiver's public key, respectively and uploads them on a server. Then a receiver generates a trapdoor of w with his secret key to search an e-mail related with some keyword w. However, Byun et al. showed that PEKS and some related schemes are not secure against keyword guessing attacks. In this paper, we propose a public key encryption with keyword search for restricted testability (PEKS-RT) scheme and show that our scheme is secure against keyword guessing attacks.
