However, unlike other network protocols, the CAN bus communication protocol lacks security features, which is a growing concern as more vehicles become connected to the Internet. To enable the detection of intrusions on the CAN bus, numerous intrusion detection systems (IDS) have been proposed. Although some are able to achieve high accuracy in detecting specific attacks, no IDS has been able to accurately detect all types of attacks against the CAN bus.

FANETs benefit from unique features, including highly moving UAVs and dynamic topological structure. Therefore, most existing routing protocols, such as the greedy perimeter stateless routing (GPSR), are not compatible with the FANET environment and its specific features. To improve the performance of GPSR in FANET, it is important to address several challenges, namely the selection of the right period for broadcasting hello messages in the network, the selection of the right criteria for selecting the next-hop node, and the improvement of reliability in the data transfer process. In this paper, an adaptive and multi-path greedy perimeter stateless routing (AM-GPSR) protocol is suggested in FANETs. It includes two new strategies, namely adaptive hello strategy and multi-path greedy forwarding strategy. The adaptive hello strategy defines a special hello broadcast period for each UAV according to its speed and error between two estimated and actual positions. Furthermore, the greedy forwarding strategy carries out a filtering operation on candidate nodes and eliminates border UAVs and those that are far from the destination. Then, candidate UAVs are prioritized based on the time to reach the destination and buffer capacity, and UAVs with higher priorities are chosen to send data packets. Finally, AM-GPSR applies a greedy multi-path forwarding strategy to increase reliability in the data transmission process. Lastly, the simulation of AM-GPSR is done via the network simulator version 2 (NS2) to evaluate its performance. This evaluation process includes two different scenarios, i.e. change in the speed of UAVs and change in their communication range. In this process, AM-GPSR is compared with three other methods, namely the aerial greedy geographic routing (AGGR) protocol, the geolocation assisted aeronautical routing protocol (AeroRP), and GPSR. This comparison shows the successful performance of AM-GPSR in terms of delivery success rate, throughput, and delay. Although the control overhead of the proposed method is more than that of AGGR.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":54346,"journal":{"name":"Vehicular Communications","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":5.8,"publicationDate":"2024-09-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142172988","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"计算机科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, most existing research focuses on the security of individual UAVs or detecting specific attacks, which fails to provide proactive protection for the network. To address this issue, we propose a UAV swarm network security situation assessment method, which combines the Transformer network with the optimization of the Aggregated Residual Transformations for Deep Neural Networks (ResNeXt) and squeeze-and-excitation (SE) structure (named TransReSE). By using multiple scale-cross convolution kernels, TransReSE can efficiently extract data features and improve situation assessment accuracy through the Transformer network. Experimental results from four public datasets have shown that TransReSE outperforms other schemes in terms of accuracy, recall, and F1.

In addition, the protection of private information of vehicles is also a key issue. Aiming at the problem of how to guarantee the secure transmission of information in VANETs under the condition of satisfying security and privacy, we propose a lattice-based conditional privacy-preserving certificateless aggregate signature scheme (LB-CLAS) for VANETs. Instead of using Number Theory Research Unit (NTRU) lattices and discrete Gaussian sampling, the proposed LB-CLAS scheme is based on algebraic lattice. In addition, based on the module version of Small Integer Solution (MSIS) and module version of Learning With Error (MLWE) hard problems, we prove that the LB-CLAS scheme is existential unforgeability under adaptively chosen message attacks (EUF-CMA). Our LB-CLAS scheme employs individual signature verification in vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) mode, while utilizing aggregate signatures and batch verification in vehicle-to-infrastructure (V2I) mode, with slightly differing transmission parameters between the two modes. Based on Dilithium, our LB-CLAS scheme solves the problem of high storage overhead and computational cost of existing schemes. The performance analysis shows that our LB-CLAS scheme is more efficient in terms of computation cost, storage overhead, and power consumption compared to existing schemes. Compared with existing schemes, our LB-CLAS scheme reduces the signature and verification overheads by more than 17.6% and 43.4%, respectively. Our LB-CLAS program also has significant advantages in batch verification. As the number of vehicles increases, our batch certification time cost is reduced by more than 90%. In addition, our LB-CLAS scheme has the smallest signature length, with a signature size that is 1X smaller than the most efficient existing scheme for the same level of security.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":54346,"journal":{"name":"Vehicular Communications","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":5.8,"publicationDate":"2024-09-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2214209624001189/pdfft?md5=d16493d6df4ea967cee7aafc78f227fc&pid=1-s2.0-S2214209624001189-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142172987","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"计算机科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, the CAN bus lacks basic security measures such as authentication and encryption, making it highly vulnerable to cyberattacks. To ensure in-vehicle security, intrusion detection systems (IDSs) must detect seen attacks and provide a robust defense against new, unseen attacks while remaining lightweight for practical deployment. Previous work has relied solely on the CAN ID feature or has used traditional machine learning (ML) approaches with manual feature extraction. These approaches overlook other exploitable features, making it challenging to adapt to new unseen attack variants and compromising security. This paper introduces a cutting-edge, novel, lightweight, in-vehicle, IDS-leveraging, deep learning (DL) algorithm to address these limitations. The proposed IDS employs a multi-stage approach: an artificial neural network (ANN) in the first stage to detect seen attacks, and a Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) autoencoder in the second stage to detect new, unseen attacks. To understand and analyze diverse driving behaviors, update the model with the latest attack patterns, and preserve data privacy, we propose a theoretical framework to deploy our IDS in a hierarchical federated learning (H-FL) environment. Experimental results demonstrate that our IDS achieves an F1-score exceeding 0.99 for seen attacks and exceeding 0.95 for novel attacks, with a detection rate of 99.99%. Additionally, the false alarm rate (FAR) is exceptionally low at 0.016%, minimizing false alarms. Despite using DL algorithms known for their effectiveness in identifying sophisticated and zero-day attacks, the IDS remains lightweight, ensuring its feasibility for real-world deployment.
