Abstract
A search execution device receives a trapdoor generated based on a user secret key in which a search auxiliary key and an attribute of a user are set and a search keyword, together with a key identifier (ID) that identifies the search auxiliary key. The search execution device decrypts an encrypted tag in which an attribute of a user who is allowed retrieval and a search word are set, using the received trapdoor and the search auxiliary key indicated by the received key ID, so as to identify a tag that is retrievable for the attribute set in the user secret key and contains a search word corresponding to the search keyword.
