Encrypted But Searchable Online Storage?
4/17/2009

An unsigned reader asks "Is there a nostrum for online storage of encrypted data on the assumption encrypted search and similar functions over the encrypted data? Is there an API/software/solution or even some online storage company on condition this? I don't like Google discerning all my unencrypted data, but I like that Google can search them when they are unencrypted. So I would like to have both: the online storage iap does not empathic my data, but he can still help me with inquiring in them, and doing other useful stuff. I mean: I send to the remote server encrypted data and later an encrypted query (the server cannot decipher them), and the server sends me back a chunk of my encrypted data stored there — the result of my encrypted query. Or I ask for the yellow pages


phone directory - instantcurrent unlisted number and address updated daily-accurate. search freephone.directory.peoplelookup.comaddress & phone directoryfind anyone structure of my encrypted data (somehow stored in my data too — like in a tar archive), and the server sends it back, without knowing that this encrypted chunk is the telephone book structure. I googled for this and found some papers, however no system software and no online service contingent upon this yet." Can anyone point to an on tap implementation?
