Conjunctive searchable encryption is an efficient way to perform multi-keyword search over encrypted data in cloud storage. However, most existing methods do not take into account the integrity verification of the search result. Moreover, existing integrity verification methods can only verify the integrity of single-keyword search results, which cannot meet the requirements of conjunctive search. To address this problem, we proposed a conjunctive keyword searchable encryption scheme with an authentication mechanism that can efficiently verify the integrity of search results. The proposed scheme is based on the dynamic searchable symmetric encryption and adopts the Merkle tree and bilinear map accumulator to prove the correctness of set operations. It supports conjunctive keyword as input for conjunctive search and gives the server the ability to prove the integrity of the search result to the user. Formal proofs and extensive experiments show that the proposed scheme is efficient, unforgeable and adaptive secure against chosen-keyword attacks.
