Abstract

The present invention relates to a method and a system for robust, searchable, symmetrical encryption, the method comprising: during initialization, having a retrieval server perform retrieval on stored ciphertext information according to a searchable ciphertext and retrieval trapdoor information (Cnt, K, Loc) sent by a client, wherein, the retrieval server acquires a last received first ciphertext set Cfrom a ciphertext database CDB just before the present retrieval according to a retrieval key K and an encryption counter Cntsent by the client, acquiring a second ciphertext set Cin a retrieval request history from a cache ciphertext database GRP according to a cache ciphertext index Loc, and merging the first ciphertext set Cand the second ciphertext set Cto form a retrieval set, and sending it to the client for decryption. The present invention is able to improve retrieval performance of searchable symmetrical encryption algorithm with robust forward and backward secrecy and to make searchable symmetrical encryption algorithm more practical.
