Secure V2V communication in IOV using IBE and PKI based hybrid approach

Abstract

We live in the world of "Internet of Everything", which lead to advent of different applications and Internet of vehicles (IOV) of one among them, which is a major step forward for the future of transportation system. Vehicle to vehicle (V2V) communication plays a major role in which a vehicle may send sensitive, non-sensitive messages and these messages are encrypted with public keys, which makes distribution of public keys is a major problem due to the vehicle need to be anonymous having pseudonyms which changes more frequently and makes it more complicated. Here we proposed a hybrid approach, which uses existing Public key certificate for authorization of the vehicle and Identity Based Encryption to generate public keys from the pseudonyms and use it in secure V2V communication without compromising anonymity of the vehicle.
