摘要

An object is to enable to search genetic information in an encrypted state. An encryption apparatus (200) encrypts a target gene which is genetic information to be stored in a storage apparatus and generates an encrypted gene, as well compares a reference gene which is predefined genetic information with the target gene to generate differential information, and generates an encrypted tag which is encrypted by embedding the generated differential information. A data center (400) stores the encrypted gene with related to the encrypted tag in the storage apparatus. A search apparatus (300) generates a search query which is encrypted by embedding the differential information as a search keyword, and sends the generated search query to a data center (400). The data center (400) specifies the encrypted tag including the differential information specified in the search query, extracts the related encrypted gene, and sends the encrypted gene to the search apparatus (300).

主权项

1. A genetic information storage apparatus which makes a storage apparatus store genetic information, the genetic information storage apparatus comprising:
a reference gene obtainment part to obtain a reference gene which is predefined genetic information; a gene input part to receive a target gene which is the genetic information to be stored in the storage apparatus; a difference generation part to compare the reference gene obtained by the reference gene obtainment part with the target gene received by the gene input part to generate differential information; a data encryption part to encrypt the target gene to generate an encrypted gene; an encrypted tag generation part to generate an encrypted tag in which the differential information generated by the difference generation part is embedded; and a data storage part to make the storage apparatus store the encrypted gene generated by the data encryption part with related to the encrypted tag generated by the encrypted tag generation part.
