The fog-storage service providers are transparency to end-users and therefore, no modification on the end-user devices is necessary. This new system is featured with(1) a stronger audit scheme which is naturally coupled with the proposed architecture and does not suffer from the replay attack and(2) a transparent and efficient compensation mechanism for the fog-storage service providers. We provide rigorous theoretical analysis on the correctness and soundness of the proposed system. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first paper to discuss about a storage data audit scheme for fog-assisted cloud storage as well as the compensation mechanism for the service providers of the fog-storage service providers.展开更多
