Abstract

The emergence in the field of Internet of Things and the success of the cloud providers have extended the horizon of the new technological model that is Edge computing. This technology has got the ability to handle problems such as improving the response time, increasing battery life, cost saving of the network, along with ensuring protection and privacy of the data. To manifest the idea of Edge Computing, here a detailed case study is presented starting from cloud architecture to the security issues, further extending to its security countermeasures using Homomorphic encryption. This article explores the security challenges and the smart way to handle them and ensure privacy to the data with nicely explained algorithms. The algorithms perform computation on the encrypted form without decryption of the ciphertext. This does not require the sharing of a secret key. The opportunities in the field of edge computing is also emphasize with the expectation that this paper will pique interest and encourage further study in this area.
