Abstract:
Techniques are provided for deduplicating encrypted data. For example, a device has data to store in an encrypted state within a remote data store. A key is used to encrypt the data to create encrypted data. The data is hashed to create hashed data and the encrypted data is hashed to create hashed encrypted data. A probabilistic data structure of the data is generated. The key is encrypted based upon the data to create an encrypted key. The encrypted data is transmitted to the remote data store, along with metadata comprising the hashed data, the hashed encrypted data, the probabilistic data structure, and the encrypted key. The metadata may be used to implement deduplication for subsequent requests, to store data within the remote data store, with respect to the encrypted data.
