Data security of smart cities

Abstract

The smart city is a new concept of urban development. It is about improving the life quality of city dwellers by making the city more adaptive and efficient, using new technologies that rely on an ecosystem of objects and services. The scope covering this new mode of city management includes: public infrastructures (buildings, street furniture, home automation, etc.), networks (water, electricity, gas, telecoms); transport (public transport, roads and smart cars, carpooling, so-called soft mobility - by bike, on foot, etc.); e-services and e-administrations.
