ABDKS: attribute-based encryption with dynamic keyword search in fog computing

摘要

Attribute-based encryption with keyword search (ABKS) achieves both fine-grained access control and keyword search. However, in the previous ABKS schemes, the search algorithm requires that each keyword to be identical between the target keyword set and the ciphertext keyword set, otherwise the algorithm does not output any search result, which is not conducive to use. Moreover, the previous ABKS schemes are vulnerable to what we call a peer-decryption attack, that is, the ciphertext may be eavesdropped and decrypted by an adversary who has sufficient authorities but no information about the ciphertext keywords.
