Abstract

By leveraging advancements in information and communications technology (ICT), Smart Cities offer many potential benefits like improved energy efficiency, management and personal security. However, this dependence on ICT also makes smart cities prone to cyber attacks. In this paper, we investigate the topic of cybersecurity for smart cities. We show how the specific characteristics of smart cities give rise to cybersecurity challenges, and review the different threats faced. Finally, we review some of the more important cybersecurity solutions for smart cities that have been proposed.
