Abstract
Searchable Symmetric Encryption (SSE) allows users to execute encrypted queries over encrypted databases. A large number of SSE schemes have been proposed in the literature. However, most of them leak a significant amount of information that could lead to inference attacks.
In this work, we propose an SSE scheme for a Privacypreserving Multi-cloud encrypted Database (P-McDb), which aims at preventing inference attacks. P-McDb allows users to execute queries in an efficient sub-linear manner without leaking search, access and size patterns. We have implemented a prototype of P-McDb and show its practical efficiency.
