Searchable encryption (SE) is an interesting tool that enables clients to outsource their encrypted data into external cloud servers with unlimited storage and computing power and gives them the ability to search their data without decryption. The current solutions of SE support single-keyword search making them impractical in real-world scenarios. In this paper, we design and implement a multi-keyword similarity search scheme over encrypted data by using locality-sensitive hashing functions and Bloom filter. The proposed scheme can recover common spelling mistakes and enjoys enhanced security properties such as hiding the access and search patterns but with costly latency. To support similarity search, we utilize an efficient bi-gram-based method for keyword transformation. Such a method improves the search results accuracy. Our scheme employs two non-colluding servers to break the correlation between search queries and search results. Experiments using real-world data illustrate that our scheme is practically efficient, secure, and retains high accuracy.

Many organizations and individuals are attracted to outsource their data into remote cloud service providers. To ensure privacy, sensitive data should be encrypted be-fore being hosted. However, encryption disables the direct application of the essential data management operations like searching and indexing. Searchable encryption is acryptographic tool that gives users the ability to search the encrypted data while being encrypted. However, the existing schemes either serve a single exact search that loss the ability to handle the misspelled keywords or multi-keyword search that generate very long trapdoors. In this paper, we address the problem of designing a practical multi-keyword similarity scheme that provides short trapdoors and returns the correct results according to their similarity scores. To do so, each document is translated intoa compressed trapdoor. Trapdoors are generated using key based hash functions to en-sure their privacy. Only authorized users can issue valid trapdoors. Similarity scores of two textual documents are evaluated by computing the Hamming distance between their corresponding trapdoors. A robust security definition is provided together withits proof. Our experimental results illustrate that the proposed scheme improves thesearch efficiency compared to the existing schemes. Further more, it shows a high level of performance.
