Protecting the information encoded in a bloom filter using encoded bits of data

摘要

Illustrated is a system and method that includes identifying data stored as an entry in a list. The system and method also includes truncating the entry to create a truncated entry. It further includes transforming the truncated entry into a hash, the hash used to set an index position value within a Bloom filter. The system and method also includes an interface module to transmit the Bloom filter.

主权项

1. A system comprising:
a memory, that resides on a secured apparatus, which includes data stored as at least one entry of encoded information in a list; a Bloom filter generation module, that resides on the secured apparatus, to build a Bloom filter based upon the at least one entry, the Bloom filter to include at least one index position value that is set based upon a hash of the at least one entry; a seed generation module, that resides on the secured apparatus, to generate seed data to be associated with the at least one entry of encoded information; an interface module, that resides on an unsecured apparatus, to receive a validation request that includes the at least one entry of encoded information; and a Bloom filter module, that resides on the unsecured apparatus, to validate the associated seed data and the at least one entry of encoded information against the Bloom filter.
