Abstract

Disclosed is secure decryption and business rule validation of encrypted confidential data within a hardware security module (HSM). The validation may include the use of a Bloom filter stored and executing within the HSM. The return order of encrypted data within the HSM as well as requests for external data relating to validation may be randomized to further harden against correlation attacks.
