| contents | With the rapid growth of Vehicle Ad-hoc Network (VANET) as a promising technology for efficient and reliable communication among vehicles and infrastructure, the security and integrity of VANET communications has become a critical concern. One of the significant threats to VANET is the presence of blackhole attacks, where malicious nodes disrupt the network's functionality and compromise data confidentiality, integrity, and availability. In this paper, we propose a machine learning-based approach for blackhole detection in VANET. To achieve this task, we first create a comprehensive dataset comprising normal and malicious traffic flows. Afterward, we study and define a promising set of features to discriminate the blackhole attacks. Finally, we evaluate various machine learning algorithms, including Gradient Boosting, Random Forest, Support Vector Machines, k-Nearest Neighbors, Gaussian Naive Bayes, and Logistic Regression. Experimental results demonstrate the effectiveness of these algorithms in distinguishing between normal and malicious nodes. Our findings also highlight the potential of machine learning based approach in enhancing the security of VANET by detecting and mitigating blackhole attacks. |
