Abstract

Security of the vehicles are challenging factor. Nowadays, users prefer comfort and a safe environment for their vehicles. With the development in technology, ancient standard keys for vehicles have been modified by Remote Keyless Entry System (RKES). This new scenario boosts user's safety and convenience. During the development of this new environment, attackers have also found new ways to hack the RKES. In this paper, a novel technique for secure authentication using blockchain technology has been developed which will provide a more secure way for keyless access. Our model is based on a time comparison of various hash algorithms which are widely used in encrypted and blockchain processes for authentication. Many tests were conducted to check the time complexity of hash algorithms for providing a clear outlook about the security and time complexity.

Keywords
