English Abstract

The security of cloud’s database is the most challenge in the cloud models.

Encryption is the solution for the data security problem but some encryption techniques do not preserve data order.

Order Preserving Encryption (OPE) is a scheme for providing query privacy in search process under encrypted cloud’s database services.

Several institutes built general Measuring scheme that highlighted the security aspect and identified specifications and properties of security algorithms.

As far as we know, an accurate Measuring scheme that clearly identifies characteristics and properties for Order- Preserving Encryption Schemes (OPES) remains unavailable.

There have been some attempts to identify some OPES characteristics by Popa and Chenette, However, They did not present a fully comparative Measuring schemes that standardized the OPES.

This thesis provides in-depth comparative studies by utilizing available research in this area in an attempt to propose a standardized Measuring scheme.

This thesis is based on three surveys covering the period (1991 – 2017) as well as over Two hundred research papers.

This thesis studies the main characteristics of (ITU-X800), Popa, Chenette, and OPES characteristics and proposed a new OPES Measuring scheme.

According to the outcomes, the researcher proposes three (OPES) measuring schemes.

This thesis called the first measuring scheme as the "Must Measuring Scheme” which consists of the mandatory properties that must be available in all (OPE) schemes.

The “Must Measuring Scheme” characteristics have been identified as the most used ones in real OPES system as well as the most cited characteristics in the OPES and security literature.

This thesis called the second measuring scheme as the “Applied Measuring Scheme”.

This measuring scheme consists of all characteristics in the must measuring scheme in addition to the most characteristics that have been used in real OPES systems.

This thesis called the third measuring scheme as the “Theoretical Measuring Scheme”.

This measuring scheme consists of all characteristics in the must measuring scheme in addition to the most characteristics that have been cited the OPES and security literature.

The “must” has been identified in this thesis by using certain cutting point for the number of OPES or literature that have been use or cited this characteristics.

Fifty nine ITU-X800 characteristics, 11 Popa’s characteristics, 11 OPES, 3 surveys, 200 papers, and 30 OPES papers have been carefully examined thus leading to the proposal of the three measuring scheme
