Abstract
A system performs cryptographic operations utilizing information usable to verify validity of plaintext. To prevent providing information about a plaintext by providing the information usable to verify the validity of the plaintext, the system provides the information usable to verify validity of the plaintext to an entity on a condition that the entity is authorized to access the plaintext. The information usable to verify validity of the plaintext may be persisted in ciphertext along with the plaintext to enable the plaintext to be verified when decrypted.
