Abstract

Research on secure range query processing techniques in outsourced databases has been spotlighted with the development of cloud computing. The existing range query processing schemes can preserve the data privacy and the query privacy of a user. However, they fail to hide the data access patterns while processing a range query. So, in this paper we propose a secure range query processing algorithm which hides data access patterns. Our method filters unnecessary data using the encrypted index. We show from our performance analysis that the proposed range query processing algorithm can efficiently process a query while hiding the data access patterns.
