“…Hathal et al ( 2020) explored that using VCS, vehicles can form a dynamic selfconfiguring network that enables a vehicle to communicate with other vehicles (V2V) and roadside infrastructure (V2I). However, such wireless communication channels are vulnerable to attacks, and therefore an authentication scheme for communications should be designed before the deployment (Hathal, Cruickshank, & Maple, 2020). Safety messaging systems areleft undesired with a tumultuous amount of threats therein the in-vehicular wireless networks.…”

The transportation and automotive industry have seen the shifts and effects of innovation within the last decade, from the addition of critical messaging technologies, event response systems, to safety integration of each user initiated by safety messaging systems to almost all private utility vehicles to a public utility vehicle, all have seen either responsive or unresponsive layers of usability and functionality issues, together with the need for safety and protection of each users and riders. These assistive technologies are supposed to help drivers and operators in their daily driving routine, believed to be connected to a myriad of networked hardware and software, and arguably to be either be cost effective or safety limited. The study exploring vehicle security improvement framework in the safety messaging system to protect against hackers delivered responses from 6 subject matter experts within the public transit authority, cloud supply chain companies, and network providers that have invested greatly in vehicle ad hoc network technologies. Thematic analysis was chosen as a qualitative method design to extract themes from the critical answers through the semi-structured interview retrieved from general responses from the subject matter experts. The general findings were extracted from the major themes 1 through 5. The general findings are the following (1) Automotive Organizations and Transit Authority Leaders have to Manage Vehicle Cyber Risks Throughout the Vehicle Lifecycle, (2) Automotive Organization and Transit Authority Should Be Involved in Engineering a Secure Vehicle by Design, (3) Engineering Vendor Teams Should Detect and Respond to Major Incidents within the Vehicle Lifecycle.

Recently, the number of vehicles equipped with wireless connections has increased considerably. The impact of that growth in areas such as telecommunications, infotainment, and automatic driving is enormous. More and more drivers want to be part of a vehicular network, despite the implications or risks that, for instance, the openness of wireless communications, its dynamic topology, and its considerable size may bring. Undoubtedly, this trend is because of the benefits the vehicular network can offer. Generally, a vehicular network has two modes of communication (V2I and V2V). The advantage of V2I over V2V is roadside units’ high computational and transmission power, which assures the functioning of early warning and driving guidance services. This paper aims to discover the principal vulnerabilities and challenges in V2I communications, the tools and methods to mitigate those vulnerabilities, the evaluation metrics to measure the effectiveness of those tools and methods, and based on those metrics, the methods or tools that provide the best results. Researchers have identified the non-resistance to attacks, the regular updating and exposure of keys, and the high dependence on certification authorities as main vulnerabilities. Thus, the authors found schemes resistant to attacks, authentication schemes, privacy protection models, and intrusion detection and prevention systems. Of the solutions for providing security analyzed in this review, the authors determined that most of them use metrics such as computational cost and communication overhead to measure their performance. Additionally, they determined that the solutions that use emerging technologies such as fog/edge/cloud computing present better results than the rest. Finally, they established that the principal challenge in V2I communication is to protect and dispose of a safe and reliable communication channel to avoid adversaries taking control of the medium.

“…Zhao and Zhang [15] proposed an authenticable privacy preservation scheme based on certificateless ring signcryption, but this scheme used a time-consuming bilinear pairing operation. Hathal et al [16] presented a certificateless and lightweight authentication scheme. In their work, they introduced authentication tokens to reduce the burden of certificate management.…”

With the development of the Internet of Things and the increase of intelligent vehicles, the Internet of Vehicles (IoVs) have been widely used in the information communication such as road and traffic conditions. However, heavy overhead of certificate management, high computing load of identity and message authentication, and the privacy disclosure of vehicle nodes have hindered the development of intelligent transportation. In this study, we propose a certificateless cross-domain anonymous authentication scheme based on blockchain for IoVs. Specifically, the vehicle identity information is authenticated by the first roadside unit (RSU), and transactions are recorded permanently and immutably in the blockchain to reduce the repeated authentication load of other RSUs. To achieve conditional privacy, the trusted authority (TA) generates pseudonyms for each registered user. The relation between the pseudonym and the real identity is kept confidential by the TA and only can only be revealed in case of disputes. Meanwhile, the private key of the vehicle is generated anonymously on the basis of certificateless technology and the pairing-free signature verification. Correctness and security proof demonstrate that our proposed scheme is provably secure and can withstand different types of attacks. A simulation environment has been built to test the packet loss rate and delay of messages in the network. Results show that the proposed scheme is more efficient than the related schemes.
