ABSTRACT

Privacy is the most important part of IOVs since various attacks such as location tracking and stealing sensitive information to create considerable risk for human lives. The attacker changes confidential information such as speed, direction, path, and location of vehicle owner and exploits its privacy. The existing privacy-preserving schemes such as pseudonym schemes, anonymous signing protocol, group signature, and authentication-based schemes, and mix zone and silent period are inefficient in terms of storage, privacy-preserving, and implementation. Furthermore, they impose high overhead and converge very slowly. To remove the issues mentioned above of existing privacy-preserving schemes in IOVS, we suggest a privacy-preservation system to secure the passenger’s privacy, which is based on an ID-based cryptosystem and pseudonym.
