We consider an efficient two-party protocol for securely computing the similarity of strings w.r.t. an extended edit distance measure. Here, two parties possessing strings x and y, respectively, want to jointly compute an approximate value for EDM(x,y), the minimum number of edit operations including substring moves needed to transform x into y, without revealing any private information. Recently, the first secure two-party protocol for this was proposed, based on homomorphic encryption, but this approach is not suitable for long strings due to its high communication and round complexities. In this paper, we propose an improved algorithm that significantly reduces the round complexity without sacrificing its cryptographic strength. We examine the performance of our algorithm for DNA sequences compared to previous one.
