Technological security in the development of smart cities

  • 5 years ago

The term "smart city" is on everyone's lips. According to this, cities of tomorrow should be intelligent, energy-efficient, technologically advanced and socially inclusive. Sustainable urban planning and development should improve the needs and requirements of citizens in their everyday lives and enhance the quality of life. Smart cities also promise their residents cost savings and optimal service.

But what about digital security in the smart cities of the future? How are the different areas, such as energy and healthcare supply or infrastructures, networked with each other and protected from external threats or attacks? The editorial office and newspaper for modern business "Trend Report" sheds light on the security precautions that need to be taken for smart cities and where the difficulties and weak points in digital networking lie.

For example, the topic of cybersecurity plays an essential role when it comes to expanding the technological infrastructures in smart cities. According to the Trend Report, this is not just about potential data loss, but also about ensuring general public safety. The more areas are digitized, the more urgent the need to address vulnerabilities in the security system and enable regular security updates. On its website, "Trend Report" presents measures that should be implemented in the construction of smart cities to guarantee the safety of citizens.
