A Comprehensive Survey on VANET Security Services in Traffic Management System

Recently, vehicular ad hoc networks (VANETs) embark a great deal of attention in the area of wireless and communication technology and are becoming one of the prominent research areas in the intelligent transportation system (ITS) because they provide safety and precautionary measures to the drivers and passengers, respectively. VANETs are quite different from the mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs) in terms of characteristics, challenges, system architecture, and their application. In this paper, we summarize the recent state-of-the-art methods of VANETs by discussing their architecture, security, and challenges. Secondly, we discuss the detailed analysis of security schemes and the possible measures to provide secure communication in VANETs. Then, we comprehensively cover the authentication schemes, which is able to protect the vehicular network from malicious nodes and fake messages. Thus, it provides security in VANETs. Thirdly, we cover the mobility and network simulators, as well as other simulation tools, followed by the performance of authentication schemes. Finally, we discuss the comfort and safety applications of VANETs. In sum, this paper comprehensively covers the entire VANET system and its applications by filling the gaps of existing surveys and incorporating the latest trends in VANETs.

India accounts for the highest road accidents and traffic congestion globally. The necessity for a canny vehicle framework is of great importance. VANET, abbreviated as Vehicular ad hoc networks is a network created in an ad hoc manner where different vehicles can exchange useful information among each other with dedicated servers ensuring safe travel. Security in VANET has always been a challenge in implementing a real time intelligent transport system. VANET is a type of mobile ad-hoc, to give correspondences among close by vehicles and among vehicles and close by fixed hardware. Vehicular ad hoc networks are highly dynamic in nature and suffer from frequent path breakage due to the high velocity of the moving vehicle. Hence, there are many security challenges and different types of attacks that makes VANETs less secure. Therefore, providing secure dedicated short-range communication (DSRC) easefully with any loss of data or malicious nodes has been a major research area. The major concern being addressed in the paper is to provide secure communication and save lives in road accidents. The role of security is high and messages in DSRC send warning messages to other vehicles. If attackers change these messages, then accidents become a part of the network and users’ lives can be at risk. Different classes of attacks include monitoring attack, social attack, timing attack, application attack and network attack to name a few. Advanced encryption standard is a symmetric block encryption algorithm. There is no evidence to crack this algorithm till date. This paper will provide a detailed overview of VANET architecture, types of attacks on VANET, AES algorithm and its salient features and how this algorithm could be utilized to make intelligent transport systems secure.

The growth of laptop and 802.11/Wi-Fi wireless networking have made Mobile Ad hoc NETworks (MANETs) a popular research topic since the mid to late 1990s. Many academic papers evaluate protocols and abilities assuming varying degrees of mobility within a bounded space, usually with all nodes within a few hops of each other and usually with nodes sending data at a constant rate. Different protocols are then evaluated based on the packet drop rate, the overhead introduced by the routing protocols, and other measures. Research in MANET is like playing in a vast playground with only few known rules and large number of unknown rules applied to its different areas. Some areas are still unknown and some areas are at its early stage. Some of the research challenges that MANET present are dynamic topologies, battery lifetime, disconnected operations, security, et cetera. In general there are three types of MANET: vehicular ad hoc networks, intelligent vehicular ad hoc network, and Internet based mobile ad hoc networks. Each of these three types has its own research areas.

Hoc Networks

Vehicular ad-hoc networks (VANETs) allow communication among vehicles using some fixed equipment on roads called roads side units. Vehicular communications are used for sharing different kinds of information between vehicles and RSUs in order to improve road safety and provide travelers comfort using exchanged messages. However, falsified or modified messages can be transmitted that affect the performance of the whole network and cause bad situations in roads. To mitigate this problem, trust management can be used in VANET and can be distributive for ensuring safe and secure communication between vehicles. Trust is a security concept that has attracted the interest of many researchers and used to build confident relations among vehicles. Hence, the authors propose a secured clustering mechanism for messages exchange in VANET in order to organize vehicles into clusters based on vehicles velocity, then CH computes the credibility of message using the reputation of vehicles and the miner controls the vehicle's behavior for verifying the correctness of the message.

The authentication scheme for vehicular ad hoc networks aims to improve the security and integrity of message delivery. The base station manages a large number of vehicular nodes, so the security communications are non-trivial. In this article, we propose an amplify-and-forward strategy for a dual-hop cooperative network in order to improve secure communications for vehicular ad hoc networks. We assume that each vehicular node equipped with a single antenna and derive closed-form expressions for the secure communication rate calculation. Moreover, we propose a cooperative strategy by jointly considering average power scaling and instantaneous power scaling, which are proved to be able to achieve information security. The simulation result shows that the proposed scheme can achieve better performance in scenarios with different signal-to-noise ratio.

Hoc Networks

Vehicular Ad Hoc Networks (VANETs) are the newest for of Ad Hoc Networks in which moving vehicles act as routers and nodes to form a network. VANETs use many cryptographic approaches like symmetric key approaches, public key approaches, certificate revocation, pseudonym based approaches, identity-based cryptography, identity-based signature, Elliptical Curve Cryptography (ECC) etc. for secure communication. These techniques use public and private keys for enhancing the security of messages and all these keys are stored on hardware devices like TPDs (Temper Proof Devices) in VANETs. TPDs are protected by the cryptographic algorithms. In this present era of technology these algorithms and their online simulators are freely available on internet and can be easily intruded. There is a potential need to enhance the security of these keys. In this paper we worked on enhancing the security of ECC keys stored in TPDs of VANETs using a specific network of Artificial Neural Networks.
