METHOD FOR INDEXING ENCRYPTED COLUMN

摘要

The present invention relates to a method of creating indexes so that an index scan can be worked for columns in a database encrypted by means of secrete key cipher algorithm. The method of creating indexes according to the present invention comprises the steps of: re-encrypting to be able to maintain the sort ordering based on a plain text; creating new indexes based on the re-encrypted data; and configuring domain index architecture of encrypted columns so that the created index is used for the index scan in a query
