RETRACTED ARTICLE: A stream position performance analysis model based on DDoS attack detection for cluster-based routing in VANET

The strength of Vehicular Ad hoc Networks (VANETs) and the rapid deployment capability, can be used in many situations where the network should be arranged in a short time and there is a need to collect sensitive information. We consider cluster-based attack detection in data compilation wherever the neighbor nodes give the important information to the cluster head. Moreover, evidence is obtainable in the cluster head may possibly be accumulated by some vehicular nodes and executes numerous responsibilities such as decision making about delivering information. The existence of malicious nodes threatens determination making through transmitting malevolent information, which is not appropriate to the VANET categorized data and might send a substantial number of packets to the vehicles or Road Side Unit (RSU). To overcome this issue, we have proposed a Stream Position Performance Analysis (SPPA) approach. This approach monitors the position of any field station in sending the information to perform a Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attack. The method computes various factors like Conflict field, Conflict data and Attack signature sample rate (CCA). Using all these factors, the method identifies the trustworthiness of the packet and includes it in decision making. The proposed approach increases the performance of a Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attack detection in a VANET environment.
