Managing Cybersecurity in Smart Cities With Blockchain Technology

Özet

Smart cities, which use cutting-edge technologies like the Internet of Things (IoT), big data analytics, and artificial intelligence (AI) to enhance the efficiency, sustainability, and livability of cities, are quickly developing as a new paradigm for urban development.   But as cities become increasingly networked and data-driven, they also become more susceptible to cyberattacks, which can jeopardize residents' security, privacy, and safety as well as threaten vital infrastructure systems like power grids, transportation networks, and emergency services. We investigate how blockchain technology might be used to oversee cybersecurity in smart cities. Blockchain technology, a type of distributed ledger, offers a decentralized, impenetrable record for handling and protecting data. Blockchain technology can aid in ensuring the integrity and privacy of sensitive information such as personal data, financial transactions, and crucial infrastructure systems by applying cryptographic algorithms and consensus procedures.
