Abstract
Communication in vehicular ad hoc networks (VANETs) is significantly increased due to several services such as location-based service (LBS), traffic management, road safety, and vehicle privacy. Authentication is one of the backbones for communication in the vehicular network to protect the whole system, and guarantee the unforgeability and effectiveness of various services. On this note, in the above article, Nandy <italic xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">et al.</i> (2021) recently proposed a secure, privacy-preserving, and lightweight authentication scheme for VANET. Recently, Chaudhry (2022) comments on Nandy <italic xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">et al.</i> ’s article, discussing the private-public key pair, clogging attack, and the pseudo-identity uses. This note addresses the raised comment by the aforesaid author. Furthermore, the detailed clarification against all comments is discussed with the purpose of producing a clear understanding.
