Detection of DoS Attack in VANETs

Abstract

VANET has number of applications like safety, comfort, efficient transportation services, entertainment and many more due to which it is growing in the present automotive industry. It is providing us a good resource for the Intelligent Transport System (ITS). But due to the mobile nature of the VANETs, a lot of problems in the actual implementation of this technology is arising. VANET uses wireless medium for its working, therefore, adding more difficulty to it. Because of this, it is easy to introduce security attacks by a malicious node. Such attacks can affect the proper working of the network. In this review paper, we have discussed about denial of service attack and its severity level. This paper analyses the different methods to combat denial of service.
