Welcome to the resource topic for 2020/274

Title:
An Optimal Relational Database Encryption Scheme

Authors: Seny Kamara, Tarik Moataz, Stan Zdonik, Zheguang Zhao

Abstract:

Recently, Kamara and Moataz described the first encrypted relational database solution with support for a non-trivial fraction of SQL that does not make use of property-preserving encryption (Asiacrypt, 2018). More precisely, their construction, called SPX, handles the set of conjunctive SQL queries. While SPX was shown to be optimal for the subset of uncorrelated conjunctive SQL queries, it did not handle correlated queries optimally. Furthermore, it only handles queries in heuristic normal form. In this work, we address these limitations by proposing an extension of SPX that handles all conjunctive SQL queries optimally no matter what form they are in.
