Abstract
In the Social Internet of Vehicles (SIoV), federated learning is able to significantly protect the private data of the vehicle’s client, while reducing the transmission load between entities. Nevertheless, data can still be stolen by an adversary who analyzes the parameters uploaded by the client to steal it. In this paper, to effectively prevent data leakage and reduce the propagation delay of data, we design a federated learning collaborative authentication protocol for shared data. The parameters of the vehicle client model are encrypted by the protocol in the federated learning. The vehicle and other entities of the protocol realize efficient anonymous mutual authentication and key agreement. The security of the proposed protocol is proved in the stochastic predictive machine model. The simulation results on the SUMO and OMNeT++ platforms show that the authentication delay is the lowest compared to other protocols and the packet loss rate is reduced to 4.68%. Moreover, the overfitting of the globally aggregated model is effectively resolved.
