Abstract: Fog paradigm is a new and emerging technology that extends the services of cloud computing near to edge network. This paradigm aims to provide rich resources near to edge devices and remove the deficiencies of cloud computing for example, latency. However, this paradigm is distributed in nature and does not guarantee the trustworthiness and good behavior of edge devices. Thus, authentication and key exchange are significant challenges in front of this new paradigm. The researchers have worked on different authentication and key exchange protocols. Recently Maged Hamada Ibrahim proposed an authentication scheme that permits fog user to authenticate mutually with fog server under the authority of a cloud service provider. Alongside, Amor et al proposed an anonymous mutual authentication scheme. In this scheme, the fog user and fog server authenticate each other without disclosing the user real identity, using public-key cryptosystem. But, we demonstrated that Maged Hamada Ibrahim does not preserve the user anonymity, hence, it was exposed to man in the middle attack. Amor et al. scheme is computationally complex as it is using public key cryptosystem that has low throughputs and requires large memory, which not suitable to employ for fog computing that connecting internet of things with small memory, and requires high throughputs. Therefore, to overcome the above-aforementioned security problems internet of things constraints, an improved mutual authentication security scheme based on advanced encryption standard and hashed message authentication code in fog computing has been proposed. Our scheme provides mutual authentication between internet of things devices and fog servers. We proved that the proposed improved scheme provides secure mutual authentication using the widely accepted Burrows Abdi Needham logic. In this study, the properties i.e. performance, security, and functionality are analyzed and compared with existing and related mutual authentication schemes. Our scheme provides better in security, functionalities, communication and computation cost as compared with the existing schemes.
