Abstract

An embodiment provides new joiners to a conversation with access to historical keys using an encrypted skip list that can be safely stored on untrusted servers. This list provides random access to conversation content with logarithmic complexity (queries and data size), and imposes small (log-scale) overhead on linear/full access to the conversation content.
