Abstract

The main purpose of VANETs is to improve road safety and to provide passengers’ comfort. Thus, information security is one of the most important issue which attracts researchers’ attention due to its open access environment. VANET requires high degree of reliability with an acceptable risk, that develops the trust between the system and users. The risk management is an essential method whose main objective is to advise and determine the appropriate actions as well as priorities to ensure information security. In this paper, we aim to apply the ISO/IEC 27005 Standard - Information Security Risk Management - on VANETs in order to classify and mitigate risks in this technology. Our contribution is an essential process that will help researchers to propose adequate solutions against the attacks in VANET based on classification results.
