Abstract

Security systems in Intelligent Transport Systems (ITS) are woefully underprepared for the security threats in the modern landscape. However, the real potential for loss of life in the event of a successful attack makes these systems the more important to protect against such intrusions. In this paper, a new security framework that is the result of the INTER-TRUST European project will be presented and proposed as a solution that could solve most of ITS’s current security problems. The solution provides dynamic and adaptable security with a set of monitoring tools that also enable the adaptation of security to different contexts or situations that makes away with the need to recode the original applications. An overview on ITS security and how specific security features can be provided to ITS applications by deploying the INTER-TRUST framework is analyzed. A proof of concept implementation has been also developed during this research with some experimental results.
