Abstract
Fog computing is one of the most important decentralized computing infrastructure in which data, computation, storage and applications are distributed in the most logical and efficient way between the data source and the cloud. It is extension of cloud computing and provides data storage, processing and computation of data just like cloud computing itself, but is located at the edge of the network, i.e. at the user end. This research paper deals with the security, privacy and data confidentiality issues in fog computing. Main sources of attacks on fog and cloud by service providers, hackers, government agencies and other organizations that access user’s data is covered. Furthermore, current security solutions are discussed. Finally, the concept of decoy technique with some modification for data privacy in case of password theft is covered.
