Biometric Signature of Private Key by Reliable Iris Recognition Based on Flexible-ICA Algorithm
TL;DR: A biometric solution of owner signature generating an encryption of the key using the iris recognition kept in a smart card using a scheme based on block encryption which offers a very propagation of a high level of confusion and diffusion.
Top-k Query Processing Over Outsourced Encrypted Data
TL;DR: This paper addresses the problem of top-k query processing over encrypted data, and proposes an efficient approach called BuckTop, which uses the bucketization technique to manage the encrypted data in the remote server and has a filtering algorithm that efficiently eliminates the false positives in the server side.
