description Vehicular Ad Hoc Network (VANET) is an important foundation of intelligent transportation system and is widely used in traffic management, automatic driving, and road optimization. With the gradual popularization and further development of VANET, a large amount of VANET data has been produced. However, it poses huge challenges to the security and privacy when using VANET data provides services for users. In this paper, combining the technologies of blockchain and ciphertext-based attribute encryption (CP-ABE), we propose a fine-grained access control scheme for VANET data based on blockchain (FADB). In FADB, we employ the blockchain to replace the third-party service providers for user identity management and data storage. And different VANET data access rights can be established according to user attribute. By improving the CP-ABE, the lightweight VANET devices can outsource complex encryption and decryption operations to powerful RSUs and further improve the efficiency of data access. Final, we carry out a series of simulation tests and security analysis, proving that the FADB can provide effective data security and low performance overhead.
