Introduction

• Vehicular ad-hoc network is a special kind of
  network in which nodes (Vehicles) can communicate
  with each other on the road and with its
  Infrastructure.

FOUR ASPECTS FOR VANET RESEARCH WORK
5
1.Academic Research (AR)

• The first aspect of the VANET Security RD
  Ecosystem is the Academic Research. Past
  researchers have contributed a lot of novel ideas
  in new life saving network.
• Vehicular Ad hoc Network (VANET) have been
  introduced to provide the infrastructure for life
  saving applications.

2. Car Manufactures (CM)

• The second aspect of the VANET Security RD
  Ecosystem is the car manufacturers which form a
  big and important industry. Researchers proposed
  and designed the concept of smart vehicle with
  some special sensors that run using VANET
  infrastructure.
• Smart vehicles are different from the normal
  vehicles which are fitted with sensors, equipped
  with processing and communication abilities that
  can help users access to services using their
  private information, access to information useful
  for their journeys, doing business transactions
  and making decisions.

3. Govt. Authorities (GA)

• The third aspect of the VANET Security RD
  Ecosystem is the Govt. Agencies (GA) that is
  responsible for providing authentication services
  for users using secure public and private keys,
  whether permanent or temporary based on the type
  of services on highway.
• GA provides these keys for secure communications
  between vehicles and infrastructure.

4. End Users (EU)

• Last aspect of VANET Security RD Ecosystem is
  end users.
• End users have their own security, trust and
  privacy requirements

Conclusion

• Security is one of the key challenges in
  vehicular network.
• This paper presents VANET Security RD Ecosystem
  that is necessary to be considered for successful
  implementation.
• The major aspects of the ecosystem i.e. academic
  research, car manufacturers, government
  authorities, and end users were discussed.
• It is necessary to do further research related to
  the
• four major aspects of the ecosystem.
