The communication in Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) suffers from various security and privacy related issues as several attacks, like replay, man-in-the-middle (MiTM), impersonation, data leakage and unauthorised data update attacks can be mounted by an adversary. Therefore, we need a robust security mechanism to sort out such issues, which can be further enhanced through the use of mechanism of blockchain technology. In this paper, we propose a blockchain-based secure data exchange and storage framework for the ITS (in short, we call it as BDESF-ITS). We conduct the security analysis of the BDESF-ITS to prove its robustness against various possible attacks. The practical implementation of the BDESF-ITS is also carried out to observe its behaviour with the real world settings.
