As local public infrastructures become increasingly digital and "smart", protecting these systems poses a new security challenge. Depending on whether these programs are run by local government or outsourced to corporate entities, there may be varying levels of existing security protocols – and varying amounts of investment available. But the stakes are higher than ever: Once a town or city digitizes its public environment, every resident is now an active participant in this smart landscape.
To address these new and growing security concerns, municipal services and cyber security providers must work together. Defending smart cities will be an evolving process, as new service features are introduced and new threats are detected. For security professionals, this could be an exciting, if high-stakes, challenge for both today and the future. But where should cities begin? And where are the biggest risks?
