Abstract:
Systems and techniques are disclosed for secure storage and searching of information on insecure search systems. One of the methods is implemented by a system of one or more computers being in communication with clients and search engines. A request associated with storage of client information in a search engine is obtained. First cryptographic information is generated based on a portion of the client information, such that the first cryptographic is to be utilized for indexing by the search engine. Second cryptographic information is generated based on performing an order-preserving encryption process on portion of the client information, such that the second cryptographic information is to be utilized to recover order associated with information included in the portion. The first cryptographic information and the second cryptographic information are provided for storage in the search system.
