Vehicular networks improve traffic safety and efficiency by wireless communications among vehicles and infrastructures. However, security has always been a challenge to vehicular networks, which may cause severe harm to the intelligent transportation systems. Sybil attack is considered as a serious security threat to vehicular networks since the attacker can disseminate false messages with multiple forged identities. In this paper, we designed a behavior feature and multi-scenario-based Sybil attack detection method, named BMSAD in vehicular networks. In BMSAD, we propose solutions for two scenarios: normal traffic and traffic congestion. A node is allowed to verify the authenticity of another node by estimating their geographic distance based on received signal strength, and compare them to its claimed localizations. Then we design long- and short-term pattern to analyze the similarity of vehicles’ behavior features and trajectory for Sybil nodes detection, which act as the second line of defense in normal traffic scenario. At last, the Sybil nodes of the traffic congestion scenario are detected by logical inference based on kinematics theory. And experiment results demonstrate that the proposed scheme achieves high detection rate and low false positive rate.
