Vehicular Ad Hoc Network (VANET) is an emerging technology in which mobility management, continuous connectivity and security on data transmission between vehicles with high speed or during the change of topology of the network acts as a challenging exploration issue of Intelligent Transportation System (ITS) applications. This paper aims to formulate a ubiquitous connectivity to nodes by keeping the established connections before and after handover thereby minimizing the delay, packet loss and provide secured acknowledgement for handover. The Secured Efficient Fast Handover Multihoming Based NEMO+ (SEFMNEMO+) framework helps to optimize the NEMO+ scheme that supports multihomed network, handover and security. The predictive policy exchangemethod is used to update the future handover for minimizing the overhead delay and packet loss. The multihomed feature in NEMO+ supports efficient handover mechanism between heterogeneous networks when VANET connection fails. Public key cryptography provides the secure acknowledgement before handover i.e ., the acknowledgement is encrypted with digital signature.
