Connected vehicular cloud computing (CVCC) is a promising paradigm that utilizes the rich resources of connected cars. However, it also introduces new cyber-attack surfaces that may compromise the security or privacy of the vehicles. In reality, security in vehicular cloud computing lies in the willingness of vehicle owners who are concerned with their vehicles' protection from various threats. Increasing the participation of vehicles will improve the security in vehicular cloud computing as a whole. Therefore, for a CVCC service provider, it is very critical to encourage vehicle owners to invest in their own security for achieving deeper security of CVCC systems. In this article, we first present a CVCC architecture and its applications. Then we study several security issues in vehicular cloud computing. Afterward, we model a CVCC network by a two-phase heterogeneous public good game, and then investigate the influence of different incentive mechanisms and the structure of a complex network describing the vehicles' connectivity on the vehicles' investment rate. Finally, we present our conclusion.

车载云计算中的协作安全：博弈论观点


联网车辆云计算（CVCC）是一种很有前途的范例，它利用了联网汽车的丰富资源。然而，它也引入了新的网络攻击面，可能会损害车辆的安全或隐私。事实上，车载云计算的安全性取决于车主的意愿，他们关心自己的车辆免受各种威胁。增加车辆的参与将提高整个车载云计算的安全性。因此，对于CVCC服务提供商来说，鼓励车主对自身安全进行投资以实现CVCC系统更深层次的安全至关重要。在本文中，我们首先介绍了 CVCC 架构及其应用。然后我们研究了车载云计算中的几个安全问题。然后，我们通过两阶段异构公共物品博弈对 CVCC 网络进行建模，然后研究不同激励机制和描述车辆连接性的复杂网络结构对车辆投资率的影响。最后，我们提出我们的结论。
