Project Description
In order to make private data securely accessible using a non-trusted cloud server, there will be a need to encrypt the data. A fully secure system will require that the encrypted data can be searched from remote mobile devices using encrypted search words and without needing to de-encrypt any data until it has been retrieved to a trusted client.
Use cases
Medical records, Financial records
Propose Solutions
A novel solution and secure searchable encryption scheme for mobile devices has been developed, which promises to be fast and not require significant overhead in bandwidth or storage resources.
Current Landscape
Currently a lot of interest and activity in this area.
Industry Impact
