The public key encryption with keyword search (PEKS) scheme, proposed by Boneh, Di Crescenzo, Ostrovsky and Persiano, enables one to search for encrypted keywords without compromising the security of the original data. In this paper, we address two important issues of a PEKS scheme, “removing secure channel” and “refreshing keywords”, which have not been considered in Boneh et al.’s paper. We point out the inefficiency of the original PEKS scheme due to the use of the secure channel. We resolve this problem by constructing an efficient PEKS scheme that removes a secure channel. We then argue that care must be taken when keywords are used frequently in the PEKS scheme as this situation might contradict the security of PEKS.
