Abstract:Cybercrimes are becoming a bigger menace to both people and corporations. It poses a serious challenge to the modern digital world. According to a press release from 2019 Cisco and Cybersecurity Ventures, Cisco stopped seven trillion threats in 2018, or 20 billion threats every day, on behalf of its clients. According to Cybersecurity Ventures, the global cost of cybercrime will reach $6 trillion annually by 2021, which is significantly more than the annual damage caused by all natural disasters and more profi… Show more
“…The absence of robust security, deployment of unsuitable methods, or the detrimental impacts of targeted attacks can lead to severe repercussions. Such vulnerabilities might encourage self-centered behavior or, in extreme cases, deliberate disruptions aimed at causing accidents [4] This study contributes to the body of knowledge by presenting a jamming detection algorithm designed to transition DSRC Safety Applications to a secure fail-safe mode. The work will focus on understanding the influence of "deceptive jammers" on the reception of Basic Safety Messages (BSM).…”
Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) encompasses technologies, services, and applications facilitating communication between vehicles (V2V) and between vehicles and fixed infrastructure (V2I and I2V). This mutual interaction constitutes a Vehicular Ad-Hoc Network (VANET) which supports a plethora of applications targeting critical transportation aspects, such as safety, mobility, and environmental considerations. Dedicated Short Range Communications (DSRC), operating on the 5.9 GHz band, is pivotal for such exchanges. We introduced an innovative algorithm designed to identify jamming attacks and transition the Safety Application to a secure fail-safe mode. This algorithm leverages a dual-metric strategy, incorporating both distance and PDR measurements. Field tests confirm that our algorithm adeptly recognizes the activities of deceptive jammers, ensuring a prompt shift of the safety application into its fail-safe state. This paper delves into these countermeasures, evaluating their efficiency via mathematical modeling, simulations, and on-ground testing. Findings acknowledge that these strategies bolster the reliability of safety applications in jamming scenarios. Furthermore, the approaches propounded align with ongoing standardization endeavors by relevant authorities, ensuring communication mediums remain unhindered.
