AbstractData security has become the most important issue in every institution or company. With the existence of hackers, intruders, and third parties on the cloud, securing data has become more challenging. This paper uses a hybrid encryption method that is based on the Elliptic Curve Cryptography (ECC) and Fully Homomorphic Encryption (FHE). ECC is used as a lightweight encryption algorithm that can provide a good level of security. Besides, FHE is used to enable data computation on the encrypted data in the cloud. In this paper, the concept of unique values is combined with the hybrid encryption method. Using the concept of unique values contributes to decreasing the encryption and decryption time obviously. To evaluate the performance of the combined encryption method, the provided results are compared with the ones in the encryption method without using the concept of unique values. Experiments show that the combined encryption method can reduce the encryption time up to 43% and the decryption time up to 56%.
