Abstract

As cloud computing becomes popular, more and more sensitive information are being centralized into the cloud. Hence, we need some mechanism to support operations on encrypted data in many applications in cloud. Public key encryption with keyword search (PEKS) is a mechanism for searching on encrypted data. It enables user Alice to send a secret value \( T_{W} \) to a cloud server that will enable the server to selectively retrieve encrypted messages containing the keyword \( w \), but learn nothing else. In this paper, we propose a PEKS scheme using lattices. Lattice-based cryptosystems are becoming an increasingly popular in the research community. Our scheme can be proven secure in the standard model with the hardness of the standard Learning With Errors problem.
