Limitations and Challenges of Fog and Edge-Based Computing

摘要

Fog computing has set standards in networking and overcome complexities in cloud computing. However, despite its many benefits, the inherent distributed model of fog computing architecture introduces a new attack surface cyber-attacks. It is important to detect and prevent such attacks on the network to make the network reliable. In this paper, an overview of the various challenges and solutions proposed by many researchers is provided. This paper particularly focuses on solutions in securing networks by proposing several methods while developing an efficient intrusion detection system. Finally, observations are made based on the results of various proposed solutions and the existing research gap is also presented.
