An Attack Tree Based Comprehensive Framework for the Risk and Security Assessment of VANET using the Concepts of Game Theory and Fuzzy Logic

Abstract

VANET is a subclass of MANET that faces plenty of research challenges in terms of security. The existing risk and security analysis approach of VANET may not work well as it is purely based on the ideological beliefs, and it does not reflect any realistic conditions. In this research work, we have done the systematic study of the various algorithms which are used to find the inflection points of equilibrium that further reflects a trade-off between the attacker and the defender's gain or loss payoff for pursuing their pursuit. This paper explores and discusses the usage of game theory and fuzzy logic in analysis of the attack and defense equilibrium. After doing this research work we have also recommended the future directives for doing research in this area.
