Cloud computing is preferred because of its numerous improvements, such as data security, low maintenance cost, unlimited storage capacity and consistent backups. However, legitimate users take advantage of cloud storage services for storing a considerable amount of sensitive data. After storing data on the cloud, data users pass on control over data to cloud administrators. Although for assuring data security, sensitive information needs to be encrypted before deploying it on the cloud server. In traditional searchable encryption, encrypted data can be searched using keywords on a cloud server without knowing data details, and users can retrieve certain specific files of interest after authentication. However, the results are only related to the exact matching keyword searches. This drawback affects system usability and efficiency, due to which existing encryption methods are unsuitable in cloud computing. To avoid the above problems, this study includes as follows: Firstly, we analyze all fuzzy keyword search techniques that are wildcard based, gram based and trie-traverse. Secondly, we briefly describe certificateless cryptography and suggest a certificateless searchable encryption scheme. Finally, this study gives easy access to developing a fuzzy keyword searchable system for a new researcher to combine the above two points. It provides easy access and efficient search results.
