data should be encrypted. When using thin clients or low-bandwidth
networks it is best to perform most of the work at the server. In this
paper we present a method, inspired by secure multi-party computation,
to search efficiently in encrypted data. XML elements are translated to
polynomials. A polynomial is split into two parts: a random polynomial
for the client and the difference between the original polynomial and
the client polynomial for the server. Since the client polynomials are
generated by a random sequence generator only the seed has to be stored
on the client. In a combined effort of both the server and the client a
query can be evaluated without traversing the whole tree and without
the server learning anything about the data or the query. | Item Type: | Internal Report (Technical Report) |
