Efficient Certificate-Less Aggregate Signature Scheme with Conditional Privacy-Preservation for Vehicular Ad Hoc Networks Enhanced Smart Grid System.

Vehicular Ad hoc networks (VANETs) as spontaneous wireless communication technology of vehicles has a wide range of applications like road safety, navigation and other electric car technologies, however its practicability is greatly hampered by cyber-attacks. Due to message broadcasting in an open environment during communication, VANETs are inherently vulnerable to security and privacy attacks. However to address the cyber-security issues with optimal computation overhead is a matter of current security research challenge.
