Abstract

SummaryTo protect the sensitive data outsourced to cloud server, outsourcing data in an encrypted way has become popular nowadays. However, it is not easy to find the corresponding ciphertext efficiently, especially the large ciphertext stored on cloud server. Besides, some data owners do not want those users who attempt to decrypt to know the sensitive access structure of the ciphertext because of some business or private reasons. In addition, the user attributes revocation and key updating are important issues, which affect application of ciphertext‐policy attribute‐based encryption (CP‐ABE) in cloud storage systems. To overcome the previous problems in cloud storage, we present a searchable CP‐ABE with attribute revocation, where access structures are partially hidden so that receivers cannot extract sensitive information from the ciphertext. The security of our scheme can be reduced to the decisional bilinear Diffie–Hellman (DBDH) assumption and decisional linear (DL) assumption. Copyright © 2015 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
