Cyber aspects in relation to safe and secure
cities
Research includes answers to the following questions:
1.
Assets: what makes cities vulnerable to cyber attacks
2.
Threats: how and by whom can city information systems be attacked?
3.
Control: how to protect city information systems?
4.
Impacts: what are the main impacts of cyber-attacks as perceived by
the cities?
5.
Benefits: to what extent are city stakeholders aware of cyber security
consequences and what are the main benefits and barriers to this
understanding?
21
Opportunities and Benefits
