In the traditional security models of VANET, due to the use of a centralized trusted authority, there is a chance of single-point-of-failure and service unavailable with the increased service access requests. Also, there was one-to-one communication between each roadside unit and trusted authority. This may increase the system complexity and increase the traffic load. To address these issues, a novel authentication protocol for fog-enabled VANET based on multiple trusted authority model is discussed which reduces the chance of service unavailability and single-point-of-failure as the entire traffic load is distributed among multiple sub-trusted authority. Due to the incorporation of fog node, a group of roadside units can be controlled centrally, where trusted authority does not need to perform individual authentication for each roadside unit. The proposed protocol's security is rigorously examined through both informal and formal security analysis. Additionally, the protocol exhibits enhanced security features, as demonstrated in a performance comparison section, showcasing its ability to meet the security and privacy requirements while incurring relatively low communication and computation and storage costs. Thus, the proposed protocol offers a secure and efficient authentication protocol for fog-enabled VANET.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":54346,"journal":{"name":"Vehicular Communications","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":6.7,"publicationDate":"2024-05-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140906357","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}

Current deep learning solutions offer robustness but at the cost of high computational demand and potential privacy breaches due to the extensive IVN data required for model training. Our study proposes a novel intrusion detection system (IDS) specifically designed for IVNs that prioritizes computational efficiency and data privacy. Utilizing fuzzy hashing techniques, we generate context-aware embeddings that effectively preserve the privacy of IVN data. Among the machine learning algorithms evaluated, the Support Vector Machine (SVM) emerged as the most effective, particularly when paired with TLSH hash embeddings. This combination achieved notable detection performance, as substantiated by T-SNE visualizations that demonstrate a distinct segregation of normal and attack traffic within the vector space. To validate the effectiveness and practicality of our proposed IDS, we conducted exhaustive experiments on the well-known car-hacking dataset and the more complex ROAD dataset, which includes diverse and sophisticated attack scenarios. Our findings reveal that the proposed lightweight IDS not only demonstrates high detection accuracy but also maintains this performance within the computational constraints of current IVN systems.

Due to the open nature of VANETs, conditional privacy-preserving authentication protocol should be offered against potential attacks. Efficient and secure authentication among vehicles in VANETs are important requirements, but there are various limitations in the existing conditional privacy-preserving authentication protocols for securing VANETs. To cope with the inherent issues, we propose a conditional privacy-preserving authentication protocol based share group session key (SGSK) by integrating the self-healing key distribution technique, blockchain, and MTI/C0 protocol. In our protocol, we use SGSK instead of the time-consuming Certificate Revocation List (CRL) checking, and we revoke malicious vehicles by updating SGSK. It is shared among unrevoked vehicles within a domain and across-domain. As a result, when a malicious revoked vehicle enters a new domain, it is difficult for it to access the system and send false messages. Furthermore, our protocol can not only achieve computation efficiency by reducing the number of computing operations of bilinear pairing but also resist various attacks while keeping conditional privacy protection. We implement our protocol in the Hyperledger Fabric platform. The experimental results show that our protocol is available to revoke 180 malicious vehicles in across-domain scenarios within one second, and it can meet the requirement of verifying 600 messages per second easily. Moreover, our comprehensive performance evaluations demonstrates that our protocol outperforms other approaches in terms of vehicle revocation checking cost, computation overhead, and communication overhead. In addition, to show the feasibility and validity of our protocol, we use SUMO and NS2 to simulate the actual VANET scenario and validate the efficiency and performance of our protocol. Simulation results prove the practicability of our protocol for VANETs.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":54346,"journal":{"name":"Vehicular Communications","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":6.7,"publicationDate":"2024-04-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140824811","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}

Due to the nature of the wireless communication link, several potential risks of attacks exist, including impersonation, modification, and replay. To ensure the security of vehicular ad hoc networks (VANETs) against malicious activities, secure data exchange between inter-communicating terminals, specifically vehicle-to-everything (V2X) communication, becomes a critical technological challenge that requires attention. Existing authentication methods for VANET applications mainly rely on crypto-based techniques. The emergence of physical (PHY)-layer authentication has gained prominence, leveraging the inherent characteristics of wireless channels and hardware imperfections to distinguish between wireless devices. The PHY-layer-based authentication is not a standalone alternative to cryptographic methods, but it shows potential as a supplementary approach for re-authentication in VANETs, referred to as “cross-layer authentication”. This comprehensive survey thoroughly evaluates the state-of-the-art of crypto-based, PHY-layer-based, and cross-layer-based authentication methods in VANETs. Furthermore, this survey delves into integrating different sixth-generation (6G) and beyond technologies, such as reconfigurable intelligent surfaces (RIS) and federated learning, for enhancing PHY-layer authentication performance in the presence of active attackers. Furthermore, in-depth insights into the advantages of cross-layer authentication methods are presented, along with exploring various state-of-the-art VANET security techniques.

The interest packet carries the content name and propagates through the network till it reaches an appropriate cached content store or the producer of the content. Retrieval of the searched content is faster if the interest packet is forwarded in right direction towards a probable content location. An efficient and optimal interest forwarding technique is the key requirement for the success of any ICN implementation. This paper describes an interest forwarding approach for information centric vehicular networks based on evolutionary game theory. It uses the Public Goods Gaming (PGG) strategy to forward interest packets so that the content can be located at the earliest. The interest packets are modeled as goods and various participating entities are categorized either as cooperator or defector. The purpose of the game is to deliver the goods (the interest packet) to the rightful content store. Cooperator tries to optimally deliver the interest packets and hence they are rewarded with certain incentives. However, defectors are not rewarded as they do not participate in the game. At the beginning, a player selects a strategy and confined to it till the completion of the game. During interest forwarding, a node selects its neighbor(s) having higher credits as next level forwarder. The scheme is analyzed mathematically to establish various claims made in this paper.

Additionally, Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) are envisioned as scalable and adaptable solutions for comprehensive IoV service coverage. The current approaches in IoV mainly concentrate on local infrastructure setups, overlooking the potential of infrastructure-less IoVs that lack extensive edge facilities. Also, the transmission of data over public channels by vehicles equipped with servers is susceptible to interception and tampering by malicious attackers. Moreover, the substantial amount of real-time data generated by vehicles, IoT devices, travelers, and social interactions pose a significant strain on servers as well as latency issues. To address these security concerns, this research suggests a secure-lightweight data collection and sharing framework for 6G-assisted smart transportation using blockchain and UAV, called IoV-6G+. The process entails drones collecting information and transmitting it to dedicated edge servers that securely aggregate the information and generate transactions on a cloud server. A cloud server securely collects data from edge servers, creates transactions, combines them into blocks, and then confirms and adds these blocks to the blockchain through a voting-based consensus method in a peer-to-peer network of cloud servers. Additionally, the security analysis of our proposed IoV-6G+ is assessed using the “Informal and formal (i.e., Scyther Tool, and Real-or-Random (RoR) Model) methods”, showcasing its efficacy in delivering a secure and efficient authentication mechanism for IoV.

Cross-domain authentication is crucial in the context of the Internet of Drones (IoD) for safely verifying and establishing trust between diverse drones and their respective control stations, which may belong to different regions or organizations. Effectively accessing resources or services in another domain while maintaining security and efficiency poses a significant challenge. Conventional authentication mechanisms relying on challenging problems like discrete logarithm and integer factorization might not be sufficient to guarantee the security and effectiveness of drone-based systems in the post-quantum era. To address this, we propose a distributed post-quantum cryptography and Physical Unclonable Function (PUF) based cross-domain authentication protocol for IoD. Key contributions of this work include the elimination of secret key storage on drones, mutual authentication, emphasis on hardware security, incorporation of post-quantum security measures, efficient cross-domain authentication and resilience against cyber attacks such as eavesdropping, impersonation, replay attack, untraceability, and PUF-modeling attack. The performance of the proposed protocol is assessed utilizing metrics like processing time, communication cost and storage utilization. In operations associated to the blockchain ledger, variables such as latency, throughput, CPU utilization, and memory utilization are also examined. The protocol shows a reduced computation time and zero sensitive data storage in drone memory, despite a slightly higher communication cost that is manageable with 5G-enabled drones.

The reliability of wireless communication for a UAV swarm is typically characterized by the signal-to-interference-and-noise ratio (SINR). However, previous work on UAV swarm communication reliability did not use a comprehensive SINR model. In this paper, we derived two novel closed-form approximations – lognormal and generalized beta prime (GBP) - of UAV swarm communication reliability based on a comprehensive SINR model. The model includes shadowing, multipath fading, the dependence of fading on external factors, which are the probability of line-of-sight (LoS) and the physical environment, as well as all possible interference within the system, which may be from the UAVs and the ground control station (GCS). For typical swarm heights between 60 – 300 m and up to 32 UAVs, comparisons of the approximate and simulated reliabilities for UAV swarms with a radius up to a critical value (which increases with the number and transmit power of the UAVs) show that only the lognormal approximation is accurate for all uplink and downlink communications, up to a critical horizontal distance from the GCS (which increases with height). Benchmarking of the lognormal approximation shows that neglecting either shadowing or multipath fading leads to high approximation errors. An example of how the lognormal approximation can be used to evaluate and maintain the communication reliability of a UAV swarm during deployment is given. Furthermore, it can be used to derive other SINR-dependent performance metrics, such as ergodic capacity and symbol error rate, which are useful in UAV network design and monitoring.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":54346,"journal":{"name":"Vehicular Communications","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":6.7,"publicationDate":"2024-04-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140787209","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}

Because of frequent topological changes, instability of wireless communication, three-dimensional movement of UAVs, and limited resources, especially energy, FANETs deal with many challenges, especially the instability of UAV swarms. One solution to address these problems is clustering because it maintains network performance and increases scalability. In this paper, a <strong><u>d</u></strong>ynamic <strong><u>c</u></strong>lustering scheme based on <strong><u>f</u></strong>ire <strong><u>h</u></strong>awk optimizer (DCFH) is proposed for FANETs. In DCFH, each cluster head calculates the period of hello messages in its cluster based on its velocity. Then, a fire hawk optimizer (FHO)-based dynamic clustering operation is carried out to determine the role of each UAV (cluster head (CH) or cluster member (CM)) in the network. To calculate the fitness value of each fire hawk, a fitness function is suggested based on four elements, namely the balance of energy consumption, the number of isolated clusters, the distribution of CHs, and the neighbor degree. To improve cluster stability, each CH manages the movement of its CMs and adjusts it based on its movement in the network. In the last phase, DCFH defines a greedy routing process to determine the next-hop node based on a score, which consists of distance between CHs, energy, and buffer capacity. Finally, DCFH is simulated using the network simulator version 2 (NS2), and its performance is compared with three methods, including the mobility-based weighted cluster routing scheme (MWCRSF), the dynamic clustering mechanism (DCM), and the Grey wolf optimization (GWO)-based clustering protocol. The simulation results show that DCFH well manages the number of clusters in the network. It improves the cluster construction time (about 55.51%), cluster lifetime (approximately 11.13%), energy consumption (about 15.16%), network lifetime (about 2.6%), throughput (approximately 3.9%), packet delivery rate (about 0.61%), and delay (approximately 14.29%).
