Resumen
Performing location-based services in a secure and efficient manner that remains a huge challenge for the Internet of Vehicles with numerous privacy and security risks. However, most of the existing privacy protection schemes are based on centralized location servers, which makes them all have a common drawback of a single point of failure and leaking user privacy. The employment of anonymity and cryptography is a well-known solution to the above problem, but its expensive resource consumption and complex cryptographic operations are difficult problems to solve. Based on this, designing a distributed and privacy-secure privacy protection scheme for the Internet of Vehicles is an urgent issue for the smart city. In this paper, we propose a privacy protection scheme for the Internet of Vehicles based on privacy set intersection. Specially, using privacy set intersection and blockchain techniques, we propose two protocols, that is, a dual authentication protocol and a service recommendation protocol. The double authentication protocol not only ensures that both communicating parties are trusted users, but also ensures the reliability of their session keys; while the service recommendation protocol based on pseudorandom function and one-way hash function can well protect the location privacy of users from being leaked. Finally, we theoretically analyze the security that this scheme has, i.e., privacy security, non-repudiation, and anti-man-in-the-middle attack.
