| Resumen |
Internet of Vehicles (IoV) has enabled the development of a wide variety of applications, such as autonomous vehicles and the monitoring of ground or even air vehicles. It has also made it possible to establish better routes and avoid problems such as theft of vehicles and parts disassembly, among others. However, the Internet connection has opened several security gaps in vehicle architecture. This vulnerability can be exploited by a third party and make cybersecurity attacks to gain an advantage, such as remotely opening doors or windows. Due to vehicle theft problems and the lack of IoV cybersecurity systems, the development of a vehicle tracking system that uses data encryption to protect information is proposed. The goal is to ensure that the exchanged data is secure at all times and completely incomprehensible to external agents in the event of a successful attack. The experiments involve the use of a Raspberry Pi to simulate a vehicle’s CAN bus communication protocol. The AES encryption algorithm is also used to modify the data and make it incomprehensible when shared online. The Firebase platform is used as a cloud storage medium. © The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Switzerland AG 2026. |
