In this research, new modeling strategy based hierarchical growing neural gas network (HGNG)-semicooperative for feature classifier of intrusion detection system (IDS) in a vehicular ad hoc network (VANET). The novel IDS mainly presents a new design feature for an extraction mechanism and a HGNG-based classifier. Firstly, the traffic flow features and vehicle location features were extracted in the VANET model. In order to effectively extract location features, a semicooperative feature extraction is used for collecting the current location information for the neighboring vehicles through a cooperative manner and the location features of the historical location information. Secondly, the HGNG-based classifier was designed for evaluating the IDS by using a hierarchy learning process without the limitation of the fix lattice topology. Finally, an additional two-step confirmation mechanism is used to accurately determine the abnormal vehicle messages. In the experiment, the proposed IDS system was evaluated, observed, and compared with the existing IDS. The proposed system performed a remarkable detection accuracy, stability, processing efficiency, and message load. Full article

The establishment of trust in vehicular ad hoc networks (VANETs) will require the application of non-conventional measures of information security, such as reputation of the participants. The system proposed in this paper uses the concept of certified reputation, in which vehicles communicate providing digital certificates that include their own reputation level. The vehicles periodically come in contact with certification and traffic control authorities to update their reputation levels, which are determined by the validation of their behavior on the network. Decision-making mechanisms in the receiver vehicles are responsible for evaluating whether the messages are true or false, based on the reputation of the communication nodes. The quantitative analysis of simulated scenarios showed the combination of the central reputation scheme with an appropriate vehicular decision mechanism achieved a total of correct decisions superior than without reputation systems. Considering the constraints of a high mobile network, the proposed system is a feasible way to reduce the risk of anomalous or malicious behavior in a vehicular network. Full article
