Abstract
Device, system and method, in a vehicle communication system, of securely storing safety-related messages. Embodiments include both digital signing and digital encryption such that (i) stored message validity is assured; and (ii) only qualified or pre-selected recipients are able to decrypt the message. Embodiments include storing environmental information geographically related to a safety event. Embodiments include a plurality of vehicles within wireless communication range receiving a network warning message and then securely storing related information in response to the warning message. Embodiments include measuring time-of-transit of messages and using this measured time to triangulate position of a transmit source. This information may be transmitted or stored. Embodiments include forwarding of network warning messages. Algorithms are described to identify spoofed messages.
