Abstract
Outsourcing data to the cloud has become prevalent, so Searchable Symmetric Encryption (SSE), one of the methods for protecting outsourced data, has arisen widespread interest. Moreover, many novel technologies and theories have emerged, especially for the attacks on SSE and privacy-preserving. But most surveys related to SSE concentrate on one aspect (e.g., single keyword search, fuzzy keyword search) or lack in-depth analysis. Therefore, we revisit the existing work and conduct a comprehensive analysis and summary. We provide an overview of state-of-the-art in SSE and focus on the privacy it can protect. Generally, (1) we study the work of the past few decades and classify SSE based on query expressiveness. Meanwhile, we summarize the existing schemes and analyze their performance on efficiency, storage space, index structures, and so on.; (2) we complement the gap in the privacy of SSE and introduce in detail the attacks and the related defenses; (3) we discuss the open issues and challenges in existing schemes and future research directions. We desire that our work will help novices to grasp and understand SSE comprehensively. We expect it can inspire the SSE community to discover more crucial leakages and design more efficient and secure constructions.

Keyword guessing attacks on secure searchable public key encryption schemes with a designated tester
Advanced Computer Mathematics based Cryptography and Security TechnologiesThe first searchable public key encryption scheme with designated testers dPEKS known to be secure against keyword guessing attacks was due to Rhee et al.

Symmetric Searchable Encryption for Database Applications
NBIS '11: Proceedings of the 2011 14th International Conference on Network-Based Information SystemsThis paper proposes an efficient symmetric searchable encryption to achieve indistinguishability of indexes and trapdoors. Previous symmetric searchable encryptions are either insecure because their trapdoor generation algorithms are not probabilistic ...
Improved searchable public key encryption with designated tester
ASIACCS '09: Proceedings of the 4th International Symposium on Information, Computer, and Communications SecurityRecently, Baek et al. proposed an efficient public key encryption scheme with keyword search based on the scheme of Boneh et al., However, the security model of Baek et al. seriously limits the ability of the adversary.
In this paper, we enhance the ...
