The continuous growth to the 6G wireless communication technology overcomes storage, stringent computation, privacy and power constraints to make an efficient and intelligent next generation transportation system to alleviate traffic jams and enhance driving experience in vehicular ad-hoc networks (VANETs). In combination with 6G technology, high availability, high reliability and occasionally high throughput are enabled in VANETs. However, the information shared in the VANET system should be secured. In this paper, an efficient batch authentication and key exchange schemes are proposed to provide a high level security by evading communication with the malicious vehicle users. In addition, an anonymous batch authentication scheme is proposed to alleviate the authentication burden on the road side units (RSUs) while performing authentication in the congested areas. Moreover, the integrity of the communicating messages is preserved in this proposed scheme to evade message modification during transmission. Even though many cryptographic schemes were proposed for batch authentication in VANETS, they suffered from lack of privacy-preservation and computational overhead. The discussion of the possible attacks section illustrates that the proposed protocol can survive against potential security attacks. In the performance analysis section, the proposed batch authentication scheme is compared with well-known existing schemes and then it is clearly revealed that the proposed scheme is computationally more efficient than the existing schemes.
