Secure authentication and privacy-preserving to improve video streaming vehicle ad-hoc network

Abstract

In vehicular ad hoc networks (VANET), the privacy of vehicle data symbolizes a big challenge towards malicious attacks. On the other side, vehicles in VANET can play a staple role in monitoring the environment by sensing the surrounding environment, compute the sensing information, and transfer the results if needed to the authorized party. Most of the modern VANETs systems encrypt the information to prevent hacking it but mostly neglect the decryption that occurred when data need to re-processed. In this paper, we try to cover this weak point by using fully homomorphic encryption (FHE) because of its specifications. The proposed work focus on twofold: first, create secure authentication and permission management system. While the second is to preserve the privacy of vehicle data that transferred among VANET infrastructure. This scheme also deals with metric security features, such as data privacy, data integrity, and key management. In the experimental results, there is good advance in the fields of interest comparing with the related works.
