No-Dictionary Searchable Symmetric Encryption

Wakaha Ogata, Kaoru Kurosawa · IEICE Transactions on Fundamentals of Electronics Communications and Computer Sciences · 2018

In the model of no-dictionary searchable symmetric encryption (SSE) schemes, the client does not need to keep the list of keywords W. In this paper, we first show a generic method to transform any passively secure SSE scheme to a no-dictionary SSE scheme such that the client can verify search results even if w ∉ W. In particular, it takes only O(1) time for the server to prove that w ∉ W. We next present a no-dictionary SSE scheme such that the client can hide even the search pattern from the server.
