<p>Techniques for efficiently seracing encrypted searchable spaces. For example, embodiments of the present invention provide techniques for searching a plurality of files that are stored in encrypted (or ciphertext) form. The search can usually be performed by decrypting only a portion of the encrypted searchable space. The search techniques determine a set of files (110) comprising of one or more files from the plurality of encrypted files that contain a user-specified query element.</p> |
