Secure Authentication in Fog Computing

Abstract

We are aiming to develop a Secure Authentication in Fog Computing. Fog computing lies between the edge and the cloud network. It improves efficiency and reduce the amount of data transfer to the cloud network for analyzing, storing and processing. This is done to improve the efficiency and also for security. This project gives us various scheme which help in securing the data and implement multi-tier authentication. It first discuses about the problem in single tier authentication like Man-in-the-Middle and gives us an idea how we can prevent it by using multi-level authentication. The main objective of this secure authentication in fog computing is to understand and acknowledge the different type of authentication and implement them to secure fog platform and gives us more efficient performance and prevents security threats and help in more data storage.
