Implementing Security in Fog Computing

Abstract

The Fog computing over the cloud data storage provides numerous benefits to their clients such as cost savings, accessibility, scalability etc., users around the world tend to shift their invaluable data to cloud storage. As the data generation rates are increasing, it is a tedious task for cloud storage providers to provide efficient storage. Cloud storage providers uses different techniques to improve storage efficiency and one of leading technique employed by them is deduplication. Data once deployed to cloud servers, its beyond the security premises of the data owner, thus most of them prefer to outsource their in an encrypted format. We also propose hybrid approach for encryption for providing security on fog computing.
