This is the security module of Vanetza. It implements the ETSI C-ITS security extension of the GeoNetworking protocol based on:
Implemented Features
Most features are implemented, including:
- Security profiles including the CAM and DENM profile
- Certificate requests for unknown certificates of other stations
- Certificate validation for incoming messages
Missing Features
There are a few missing features, but the overall implementation is in a working state to send and receive secured messages. It has been verified to work correctly by interoperability tests with other implementations.
- Revocation checks for certificate authorities
Certificates of CAs can be revoked via CRLs. There will be a new standard for the corresponding protocol in May 2018. It will be a new version of ETSI TS 102 941.
- v2: region checks for polygonal and identified regions
There are TODO notes in the code of region.cpp within the is_within() functions. Implementing these checks is non-trivial.
- v2: region consistency checks for regions other than circular and none region restrictions
There are TODO notes in the code of region.cpp within the is_within() functions. Implementing these checks is non-trivial.
- v3: region checks for identified regions
- Certificate requests
Currently there's no support to request authorization tickets from an authorization authority or to do an enrolment.
