Security, Trust and Privacy for Cloud, Fog and Internet of Things

Abstract

Internet of Things (IoT) is a promising networking scenario in the cyber world, bridging physical devices and virtual objects. By considering the limited capacity of smart things, cloud computing is generally applied to store and process the massive data collected by the IoT. Furthermore, fog computing is described as an extension and a complement to cloud computing. It utilizes fog nodes to perform storage, computation, and communication locally. The merging of cloud/fog computing and IoT can be seen as the best of two worlds by concurrently offering ubiquitous sensing services and powerful processing capabilities.
