At least one transceiver is configured to wirelessly receive a unique identifier (ID) of a source node that is external to a vehicle. A distributed ledger includes a list of unique IDs associated withtrusted source nodes. An ID comparison module is configured to compare the unique ID of the source node with the list. The at least one transceiver is configured to, in response to a determination that the unique ID of the source node is not within the list, wirelessly transmit the unique ID of the source node the trusted source nodes of a connected network for execution of a consensus algorithm.A ledger management module is configured to, in response to a determination to trust the source node via execution of the consensus algorithm, add the unique ID of the source node to the list. 至少一个收发器被配置为无线地接收车辆外部的源节点的唯一标识符(ID)。分布式总帐包括与被信任源节点相关联的唯一ID列表。ID比较模块被配置为将源节点的唯一ID与列表进行比较。至少一个收发器被配置为响应于确定源节点的唯一ID不在列表内，将源节点的唯一ID无线发送到连接网络的被信任的源节点用于执行一致性算法。总帐管理模块被配置为响应于通过执行一致性算法确定信任该源节点，将该源节点的唯一ID添加到列表。
