SECURE INDEX BASED SEARCHABLE ENCRYPTION SCHEMES FOR CLOUD ENVIRONMENT

Providing security to the data is challenging task in the cloud environment. Cloud computing involves the issues like data leakage and unauthorized access of data among virtual machines running on the same server failure of a cloud provider leading to unavailability of cloud service release of critical and sensitive data to government agencies without the approval of the client hackers breaking into client applications and acquiring sensitive information. This book aims at designing new schemes that support to perform the search operation on encrypted data without revealing sensitive information to anyone including cloud service provider in a multi-user environment.
