Fuzzy Keyword Search Over Encrypted Data using Cloud Computing

“Cloud” is a collective term for a large number of developments and possibilities. It is not an invention, but more of a “practical innovation”, combining several earlier inventions into something new and compelling. A cloud computing platform dynamically provisions, configures, reconfigures, and de provisions servers as needed [8]. Servers in the cloud can be physical machines or virtual machines. Security is a critical issue in cloud computing due to the variety of IT services that can be provided through a cloud environment. This paper focuses on the aspect of searching keywords over encrypted data while maintaining integrity of the data. Using a traditional algorithm like AES. Unlike traditional searching algorithms, here we try to implement a fuzzy logic which is based on a NLP technique called N gram. This fuzzy keyword searching significantly increases the efficiency and safety over cloud. This will keep the searching time efficient and acquire great results. The n-gram logic will be used to make sets of keywords which will used in the search implementation. To achieve more accurate results, Jaccard Coefficient will be used to find the similarity between the sets of keywords and rank them based on that. The purpose of this paper is to improve the traditional keyword search over encrypted data using cloud computing using advanced algorithms without compromising over security. Through rigorous security analysis, we show that our proposed solution is secure and maintains the privacy of the file server while efficiently using the fuzzy logic
