Simulating MIMT Attackers' Strategies in VANET to Secure ITS in Smart Cities via Multiverse Optimization-based Hybrid Routing Approach

Abstract

The connection between moving vehicles and stationary Road Side Units is made possible by VANET technology, which is an essential component of Intelligent Transportation Systems. Vanet based intelligent transportation system (ITS) security is major issue in present days. MIMT Attackers' Strategies are taken into account to test the security of VANET based ITS system in present research paper. The major objective of research paper is to evaluate the potential of security model in case of different type of message dropping and delay attack. It is observed that there is probability of message delay, message drop, and message tampering attack in VANET based ITS system. Due to such attacks there is huge impact on content delivery ratio, packet delay and dropping. Thus proposed hybrid routing approach that is considering Multi-verse optimization has been used to simulate the Quantifying MIMT attacks. In present research, Vanet security in case of intelligent transportation system in smart cities has been considered.
