The key for improving a system's performance, its security and reliability is to have the dataprocessed locally in remote data centers. Fog computing extends cloud computing through itsservices to devices and users at the edge of the network. Through this paper it is explored the fogcomputing environment. Security issues in this area are also described. Fog computing providesthe improved quality of services to the user by complementing shortages of cloud in IoT (Internet ofThings) environment. Our proposal, named Adaptive Fog Computing Node Security Profile(AFCNSP), which is based security Linux solutions, will get an improved security of fog node withrich feature sets.
