Fog computing is considered emerging technology nowadays. Due to proximity to the end user, fog computing provides a reliable transmission with low latency. In this paper, we have proposed an improved mutual authentication security scheme based on advanced encryption standard AES and hashed message authentication code HMAC in fog computing. Our scheme provides mutual authentication between edge devices and fog server in edge fog cloud computing environment. Further, the scheme has the resistance to man in the middle attack in the fog computing environment. Detailed security analyses are summarized.
