An Emerging US (and World) Threat: Cities Wide Open to Cyber Attacks – Cerrudo
- “Cities should be required to seriously consider how to best prepare against possible cyber attacks. Cities need to develop an emergency plan that provides steps to follow during a cyber attack and educate people on how to react while under attack. Fast and effective reaction can be key to preventing bigger problems including city chaos.”
– How does a smart city determine who develops an emergency plan for a cyber attack, and how would this plan be spread and implemented to the public?
– Is there a particular agency that regulates the type of technology used in smart buildings and monitors what is up to date or can be updated? Who is really to blame when a system undergoes a malfunction or even a threat?
– Is there a precedent we can look to that has solved this problem at any point, with Barcelona being the “smartest city” to date, how do they take precaution in these terms?
