Vehicular networks have been drawing special atten- tion in recent years, due to its importance in enhancing driving experience and improving road safety in future smart city. In past few years, several security services, based on cryptography, PKI and pseudonymous, have been standardized by IEEE and ETSI. However, vehicular networks are still vulnerable to various attacks, especially Sybil attack. In this paper, a Support Vector Machine (SVM) based Sybil attack detection method is proposed. We present three SVM kernel functions based classifiers to distinguish the malicious nodes from benign ones via evaluating the variance in their Driving Pattern Matrices (DPMs). The effectiveness of our proposed solution is evaluated through extensive simulations based on SUMO simulator and MATLAB. The results show that the proposed detection method can achieve a high detection rate with low error rate even under …
