Scaling VANET Security Through Cooperative Message Verification
This addresses scalability issues in VANET security for vehicles and infrastructure, though it appears incremental as it builds on existing optimization approaches.
The paper tackles the problem of processing overhead in VANET security for resource-constrained OBUs, proposing a novel scheme that enables secure vehicular communication systems to scale beyond network densities achievable by existing methods while maintaining security and privacy.
VANET security introduces significant processing overhead for resource-constrained On-Board Units (OBUs). Here, we propose a novel scheme that allows secure Vehicular Communication (VC) systems to scale well beyond network densities for which existing optimization approaches could be workable, without compromising security (and privacy).
