Abstract:
The present invention involves with a method of hybrid searchable encryption, involving using at least one first computing device that has a first processor configured to perform steps of: using a first symmetric key to encrypt data so as to obtain a data first ciphertext, using a second symmetric key to encrypt a keyword related to the data so as to obtain a searchable keyword first ciphertext that is related to the data first ciphertext, and saving the data first ciphertext and the keyword first ciphertext in a first memory of a first computing device; and using the first symmetric key to encrypt the keyword so as to generate a keyword second ciphertext, using a first public key to encrypt the keyword so as to obtain a searchable third keyword ciphertext related to the keyword second ciphertext, and sending the keyword second ciphertext and the searchable third keyword ciphertext to a second computing device; wherein the second computing device has a second processor that is configured to perform steps of: receiving the keyword second ciphertext and the searchable third keyword ciphertext from the first computing device and saving the two together with an identification of the first computing device relationally in a second memory of the second computing device.
