Searchable encryption (SE) technology allows users to use keywords to retrieve encrypted data and ensure that useful plaintext information of encrypted data will not be disclosed. For a secure SE scheme, if it is able to meet the multi-trapdoor privacy (MTP), the security will be improved compare with the traditional SE scheme. However, there are few searchable encryption schemes that can meet the requirement of MTP. In addition, many existing schemes ignore the need of multi keyword search, and both sides of communication use the same cryptosystem and cryptographic parameters, which leads to the problem of low search efficiency and practicability. Therefore, we propose a heterogeneous SE scheme that supports multi-keyword search, provides MTP and allows both sides of communication to be worked in different cryptosystems with different cryptographic parameters. With the use of the random oracle model (ROM), we demonstrate the security of the proposed scheme, and we show the excellent performance of the proposed scheme at the end of the article.
The rapid development of wireless sensors has accelerated the popularity of wireless body area network (WBAN). WBAN use multiple sensors to collect the patient’s body data, and the data is transferred to the medical cloud for processing and analyzing. In order to protect the data in the medical cloud, some heterogeneous signcryption schemes that support equality test have been proposed. However, we observe that these schemes use the same cryptographic parameters in different cryptographic systems. In addition, most of these schemes cannot resist the replay attack (RRA) or know session temporary key attack (RKSTKA). To deal with these problems, this paper presents a cross domain heterogeneous signcryption scheme with equality test (CDSCET) for WBAN. In CDSCET, the ciphertexts are from certificateless cryptographic system (CLC) to public key infrastructure (PKI), where two different cryptosystems use different cryptographic parameters. CDSCET can realize confidentiality, integrity, authentication, RRA and RKSTKA. Moreover, compared with three latest schemes, CDSCET has reduced the total computation cost by at least 56.46%.

In wireless body area network (WBAN), the WBAN sensors usually transmit encrypted data for the sake of security. But because of this, finding and getting the required data quickly becomes a challenge. Thus, many scholars have proposed searchable encryption (SE) schemes. Regrettably, many proposed SE schemes are not resistant to inside keyword guessing attack (IKGA), and most schemes are not suited for cross-domain communication in WBAN because they use single cryptosystem and the same cryptographic system parameters. To address the aforementioned issues, we put forward a new SE scheme for WBAN based on the public key cryptosystem in this paper. Our scheme allows WBAN sensors in certificateless public key cryptography (CLC) and receivers in public key infrastructure (PKI) environment use different cryptographic system parameters to realize cross-domain heterogeneous communication. At the same time, our scheme can effectively resist IKGA. Compared to the five existing schemes, the total computation cost of our scheme reduced by at least 59.99%.
