Secure Communication in Vehicular Networks - PRESERVE Demo

Security and privacy are fundamental prerequisites for the deployment of vehicular communications. The near-deployment status of Safety Applications for Intelligent Transport Systems (ITS) calls for strong evidence on the applicability of proposed research solutions, notably close-to-reality situations and field-operational trials. The contribution of our work is in this direction: We present a demonstration of the integration and the interoperability among components and security mechanisms coming from different Research and Development projects, as per the PRESERVE project. In fact, we show that the components of the SeVeCom and EVITA projects with the PRESERVE architecture lead to strong and practical security and privacy solutions for Vehicular Ad-hoc Networks (VANETs).
