The method includes steps of: a key server, (a) if a registration request is acquired from an owner mobile device of an owner of the vehicle, generating a primary key and a secondary key, primary rights and secondary rights, combining the primary rights with the primary key and the secondary rights with the secondary key, transmitting the primary key and the secondary key to the owner mobile device, and setting the vehicle and the owner mobile device as a domain of the vehicle; and (b) if a vehicle-sharing request is acquired from the owner mobile device or a vehicle-sharing server, generating vehicle-sharing rights, combining the vehicle-sharing rights with the secondary key, transmitting each combined vehicle-sharing right to its corresponding information-receiving means of the vehicle-sharing users, and registering the user mobile devices in the domain.
