Abstract-CloudComputing is a computing paradigm for delivering computational power, storage and applications as services via Internet on a pay-as-you-go basis to consumers. The data owner outsources local data to the public cloud server to reduce the cost of the data management. Critical data has to be encrypted to ensure privacy before outsourcing. The state-ofthe-art SSE schemes search only over encrypted data through keywords, hence they do not provide effective data utilisation for large dataset files in cloud. We propose a Most Significant Index Generation Technique(MSIGT), that supports secure and efficient index generation time using a Most Significant Digit(MSD) radix sort. MSD radix sort is simple and faster in sorting array strings. A mathematical model is developed to encrypt the indexed keywords for secure index generation without the overhead of learning from the attacker/cloud provider. It is seen that the MSIGT scheme can reduce the cost of data on owner side to O(NT × 3) with a score calculation of O(NT ). The proposed scheme is effective and efficient in comparison with the existing algorithms.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
