rise in targeted attacks on smart city projects
The Sectrio Advantage
Smart cities require a multi-faceted cyber defense strategy supported by essential tools to shield themselves from intricate cyber threats and malicious activities. The ongoing digitization, launch of extensive digital services, and widespread automation in various projects set new efficiency benchmarks for smart cities. However, this rapid expansion also opens up vulnerabilities that opportunistic hackers can readily exploit.
The surge in cyberattacks targeting smart cities is primarily driven by hackers seeking ransom through the denial of essential services or manipulation of crucial IoT and OT systems. The continuous integration of new IoT and OT systems into the city’s infrastructure further expands the attack surface.
Sectrio, with its proven IoT and OT cybersecurity products and services, provides a unique combination of cybersecurity solutions and services to secure the entire digital and service footprint of smart city projects. Through heightened asset visibility, cyber threat intelligence, continuous threat monitoring and detection, and secure communication, smart cities can partner with Sectrio to meet their unique security needs.
Challenges
Expanding threat surface
Connected vehicles often discovernearby devices and exchange data
with other connected systems. This
interconnectivity becomes a double
edged sword when such systems act
as malware carriers infecting other systems.
Building management
systems
Elevators, smart door locks,IoT enabled camera and other
privacy systems could be
manipulated, controlled and
even made unavailable.
Asset Visibility and
segmentation
Lack of network segmentationand visibility of connected
assets could cause catastrophic
damages across a smart city.
