Abstract: A cryptographic system (10) uses a cryptographic scheme capable of decrypting ciphertext on which one of two pieces of information corresponding to each other is set, with a decryption key on which the other piece of information is set. A key generation apparatus (401) generates a user private key on which one of key information u and key information y corresponding to each other is set, and a re-encryption key to convert ciphertext which can be decrypted with an attribute private key on which one of user attribute information x and user attribute information v corresponding to each other is set, into a re-ciphertext on which the other of the key information u and the key information y is set. A ciphertext storage apparatus (201) stores ciphertext on which the other of the user attribute information x and the user attribute information v is set. A re-encryption apparatus (301) re-encrypts the ciphertext stored in the ciphertext storage apparatus with the re-encryption key to generate the re-ciphertext.

Abstract: A searchable encryption resistant to frequency analysis. A conversion rule management device generates a conversion rule table associating a search keyword with a conversion keyword group. Based on the conversion rule table, a data registration device generates registration data associating encrypted data with an encrypted keyword, and registers the registration data in a server device. An information processing device obtains from the conversion rule table a conversion keyword group associated with a specified search keyword, generates an encrypted keyword group, and requests a data search by specifying the encrypted keyword group. Using as a search key an encrypted keyword included in the encrypted keyword group, the server device searches for encrypted data associated with the search key, and returns searched encrypted data. The information processing device decrypts the searched encrypted data, and outputs as a search result search data obtained by decryption.

Abstract: A data search server stores a system ciphertext including a data ciphertext and a keyword ciphertext in each category-specific DB unit for each data category, and stores each category-determination secret key being associated with each category-specific DB unit. A search request receiving unit receives from a data search terminal a search request including a search trapdoor and an index tag. A data searching unit searches for a category-determination secret key with which the index tag is decrypted to the same value as a key-determination value. Using the search trapdoor, the data searching unit performs a search of a Public-key Encryption with Keyword Search scheme on system ciphertexts in a category-specific DB unit associated with this category-determination secret key. A search result transmitting unit transmits to the data search terminal a data ciphertext included in a system ciphertext which has been found as a hit in the search.
