SEPCVN: Secure and Efficient Protocol for Cloud Vehicular Networking

Abstract

Cloud vehicular networking is a relatively new inter-vehicle communication paradigm. The ability of cloud vehicular networking to address critical safety issues in road traffic is highly rated by operators. This study examines cloud vehicular networking technology, its advantages, problems, and possible remedies. It focuses on overcoming control system issues while placing a stronger emphasis on security. Integrating vehicles into the cloud ecosystem presents numerous security and efficiency challenges. This study thoroughly examines the current protocols and suggests a brand-new, Secure, and Efficient Protocol for Cloud Vehicular Networking (SEPCVN). The proposed protocol aims to improve data transmission efficiency and address security flaws in cloud-connected vehicle networks. We discuss a specialized authentication method for secure vehicle-to-vehicle communication to tackle many challenges. According to the security study, formally and informally, our suggested protocol satisfies the necessary security requirements. Using the Automated Validation of Internet Security Protocols and Applications (AVISPA) tool, a simulation analysis was carried out on the proposed protocol, which is safe from man-in-the-middle and reply attacks. Compared to similar protocols, the proposed framework is computationally and communicably effective. The results indicate that the suggested plan for cloud vehicular networking is both effective and safe.
