The World of Searchable Encryption

Tobias Mueller

In this talk we will give a brief introduction to searchable (symmetric) encryption, i.e. search over encrypted data.
We found that many people cannot believe that it is possible to execute operations on ciphertext.
We want to rectify this by educating hackers of the magic of searchable encryption schemes.
We present different approaches to achieve searchable ciphertext, namely one with an index and one with cleverly encrypted words.
