摘要

Performing privacy-preserving queries, particularly anonymous authentication, against large-scale datasets presents critical tradeoffs between security, latency, scalability. Existing cryptographic solutions often impose linear computation or communication overheads. This paper introduces a novel, efficient protocol for secure anonymous authentication, uniquely combining matrix partitioning via hash prefixes with Oblivious Pseudorandom Functions in a three-server semi-honest model. Crucially, compared to our previous work published at TrustCom 2024, this enhanced protocol eliminates the dependency on a designated fully trusted server, achieving security when any single server is corrupted. Furthermore, our protocol demonstrates significant performance improvements over current state-of-the-art methods. It achieves sub-linear online communication complexity. Evaluations show that for datasets of size \(m\approx {10}^{6}\) , our protocol reduces online communication by at least 30% compared to other sub-linear schemes, while maintaining competitive online computation times. Security is proven via simulation, and comprehensive experiments confirm practicality for datasets up to \(m={10}^{8}\) .
