Abstract
Data communication within a smart vehicular environment has become a major area of focus. This is due to the number of traffic created as a result of the increase in the number of sensors operating inside smart vehicles. Several research works have been carried out in different areas with respect to data response time and data security focusing on two of the most popular data transportation platforms for passing data from a source to destination in vehicles - the Controller Area Network Bus (CANBUS) and Ethernet data platforms. These are not only prone to data message attacks, but are limited in data security as they provide little data security while data is being transferred. This research proposes the usage of the ASCON Lightweight Crytographic (LWC) algorithm which is a post-quantum cryptography architecture that ensures data being passed across are not only properly encrypted and authenticated but ensure that they are post-quantum secured which ensures that the data sensor ID is hashed before being forwarded for processing while encrypting the data message itself. This further ensures the integrity of the source and destination of the data. The cryptography nature of the post-quantum architecture further ensures the credibility, and the integrity of the data message passed within a vehicle thereby increasing the level of security of the data and making this more difficult to hack if a quantum computer is used.
