Abstract
Efficient utilization of the IoT generated data helps in the decision-making process as well as the realization of the concept of smart cities into a reality. The smart cities utilize Intelligent Transportation System (ITS) to facilitate smart vehicles to operate independently without much human intervention. The ITS system utilizes the data produced by the smart infrastructure to intelligently operate the smart vehicles and make highly precise decisions in the whole smart city ecosystem. Although ITS has been in its evolutionary phase, this is the right time to realize the vulnerabilities present in the ITS infrastructure that can be exploited by the adversaries to render devastating attacks. The ITS network involves highly sophisticated infrastructure where any anomaly provokes threat to human lives. The ITS data can be manipulated by the adversaries for attacks such as password theft, information spoofing, data manipulation, information loss, eavesdropping, and key fob attacks.
Blockchain provides a distributed and tamper-resistant technology by utilizing a privacy-preserving ledger to secure data in an efficient manner. The Blockchain technology eliminates the adversarial impact of the attackers by leveraging the computational capabilities of the trusted nodes in the network. In this research, we provide a secure framework for effective implementation of ITS using Blockchain technology in the centralized management of software defined networking. This framework utilizes edge computing where Blockchain provides security services. This framework is secure, provides interoperability, less information leakage, and seamless integration between versatile smart vehicles and service infrastructure.
