BDO-SD: An efficient scheme for big data outsourcing with secure deduplication In the big data era, duplicated copies of data may be generated by various smart devices. Although convergent encryption has been extensively adopted for secure deduplication, it is still very challenging to efficiently and reliably manage the convergent keys and support keyword search over encrypteddata. This paper addresses this problem by presenting an efficient scheme for big data outsourcing with secure deduplication, named BDO-SD. Specifically, with the convergent encryption technique, dataowners can outsource their data to the cloud server with data deduplication; with the idea of public key encryption and keywords search, a data user can query encrypted data while preserving its privacy. Security analysis demonstrates that our proposed BDO-SD scheme can achieve the dataconfidentiality, query privacy and key security. Simulation results show that compared with other schemes, our scheme can achieve better efficiency than the existing data deduplication schemes.
