Abstract : INTRODUCTION: Road safety improvements through Vehicular Ad-hoc Networks (VANETs) occur because these networks enable vehicles to exchange messages with Road Side Units (RSUs). The secure exchange of data in VANET evolves as a fundamental challenge in practical systems because nature-based implementation problems combine with protection threats from both data failure and sabotage-based message releases.OBJECTIVES: This research develops a new routing protocol to strengthen VANET communication security processes by filling existing vulnerabilities and building reliable data transmission methods.METHODS: CAPTARP represents a routing protocol which integrates PVKHP as its Secure Preemptive Verifiable Key Handover Policy. Data from RSU communications first needs collection before the lookup environment can be established. The Payload Data Impact Rate (PDIR) detects both transmission defects and congestion through analysis. The Transmission Behavioral Delay Tolerance Rate detects the patterns of deliberate transmission anomalies. SRSU-FIS operates as a security enhancement mechanism for routingdecisions while maintaining context-based security protection capabilities.RESULTS: Test simulations show that the proposed system delivers better results than current approaches by achieving 94.19% throughput alongside 96.03% packet delivery ratio while reaching 95.03% security performance and 95.24% authentication level and maintaining 18.06 ms end-to-end delay.CONCLUSION: The combination of CAPTARP protocol with PVKHP protocol effectively strengthens VANET security by providing better authentication coupled with trust validation and rapid communication procedures. The security performance surpasses traditional methods because this innovative approach represents a strong solution for protecting vehicular communication networks.
