description Car-sharing systems can solve various urban problems by providing shared vehicles to people and reducing the operation of personal vehicles. With the development of the Internet of Things, people can easily use a shared car through simple operations on their mobile devices. However, the car-sharing system has security problems. Sensitive information, such as the user’s identity, location information, and access code, is transmitted through a public channel for car-sharing. Hence, an attacker can access this information for illegal purposes, making the establishment of a secure authentication protocol essential. Furthermore, the traditional car-sharing system is established on the centralized structure, so there is a single point of failure. Thus, the design of a decentralized car-sharing scheme is vital for solving the centralized problem. This study designed a decentralized car-sharing scheme using blockchain. Specifically, blockchain technology was used to provide a decentralization car-sharing service and ensure data integrity. The participant entities of the proposed system can be authenticated anonymously. The proposed car-sharing system can be secured against various attacks and provide mutual authentication using informal analysis, automated validation of internet security protocols and applications (AVISPA) simulation, and BAN logic analysis. The computation costs and communication costs of the proposed scheme were also analyzed.
