“…Since the ADS-B messages can be received by any individual ADS-B receiver, this results in substantial security concerns for ADS-B-based communication systems. Baek et al [185] proposed an identity-based encryption scheme by modifying the original identity-based encryption of Boneh and Franklin [186]. He et al developed the triple-level hierarchical identity-based signature scheme of [187] for practical deployment.…”

The engineering vision of relying on the "smart sky" for supporting air traffic and the "Internet above the clouds" for in-flight entertainment has become imperative for the future aircraft industry. Aeronautical ad hoc Networking (AANET) constitutes a compelling concept for providing broadband communications above clouds by extending the coverage of Air-to-Ground (A2G) networks to oceanic and remote airspace via autonomous and self-configured wireless networking amongst commercial passenger airplanes. The AANET concept may be viewed as a new member of the family of Mobile ad hoc Networks (MANETs) in action above the clouds. However, AANETs have more dynamic topologies, larger and more variable geographical network size, stricter security requirements and more hostile transmission conditions. These specific characteristics lead to more grave challenges in aircraft mobility modeling, aeronautical channel modeling and interference mitigation as well as in network scheduling and routing. This paper provides an overview of AANET solutions by characterizing the associated scenarios, requirements and challenges. Explicitly, the research addressing the key techniques of AANETs, such as their mobility models, network scheduling and routing, security and interference are reviewed. Furthermore, we also identify the remaining challenges associated with developing AANETs and present their prospective solutions as well as open issues. The design framework of AANETs and the key technical issues are investigated along with some recent research results. Furthermore, a range of performance metrics optimized in designing AANETs and a number of representative multi-objective optimization algorithms are outlined.

Location verification is a promising approach among various ADS-B security mechanisms, which can monitor announced positions in ADS-B messages with estimated positions. Based on common assumption that the attacker is equipped with only a single device, this mechanism can estimate the position state through analysis of time measurements of messages using multilateration algorithm. In this paper, we propose the formal model of multidevice false data injection attacks in the ATC system against the location verification. Assuming that attackers equipped with multiple devices can manipulate the ADS-B messages in distributed receivers without any mutual interference, such attacker can efficiently construct attack vectors to change the results of multilateration. The feasibility of a multidevice false data injection attack is demonstrated experimentally. Compared with previous multidevice attacks, the multidevice false data injection attacks can offer lower cost and more covert attacks. The simulation results show that the proposed attack can reduce the attackers’ cost by half and achieve better time synchronization to bypass the existing anomaly detection. Finally, we discuss the real-world constraints that limit their effectiveness and the countermeasures of these attacks.

“…This proposal suffers from implementation difficulties, because implementing a PKI infrastructure in a global maritime environment may prove to be quite a demanding and complicated task, and because certificates are very resource demanding in the challenging and costly maritime wireless communications environment. For these same reasons, works that aim at improving the security of similar systems, such as the Automatic Dependent Surveillance -Broadcast (ADS-B) in aviation, and propose the use of identity-based cryptography and symmetric cryptography [35], [36] are inapplicable in the maritime environment. Work that is not yet clear whether or how may affect the future of AIS security is also underway 3 .…”

The Automatic Identification System (AIS) is the emerging system for automatic traffic control and collision avoidance services in the maritime transportation sector. It is one of the cornerstone systems for improved marine domain awareness and is embedded in e-navigation, e-bridging, and autonomous ships proposals. However, AIS has some security vulnerabilities, that can be exploited to invade privacy of passengers, to launch intentional collision attacks by pirates and terrorists, etc. In this work, we explore how Identity-Based Public Cryptography and Symmetric Cryptography may enhance the security properties of the AIS.
