This topic pertains to developing and applying a structured and comprehensive framework combining blockchain for understanding and managing security risks within the Internet of Vehicles (IoV) context. The primary focus of this topic is security within the IoV, a network of interconnected vehicles and infrastructure components that communicate and share data. As IoV systems handle sensitive data and can be vulnerable to various threats, ensuring robust security is paramount. In this context, an ontology refers to a formal representation of knowledge or a structured framework for defining and categorizing concepts. It provides a common vocabulary and taxonomy to describe various elements related to security in IoVs.
