Abstract

In recent years, security has been a major concern to everyone. Some devices like energy meters, health appliances have been a life changing technology for smart city. These devices have assisted in connecting several different services and in turn have made life better for people living in smart city. Other services such as emergency responder, water system, disaster management, sanitation and infrastructure have evolved with the birth of a smart city. The rapid advancements in services provided in a smart city are now drawing major security concerns. One of the major security concerns are integrated systems. The purpose of this paper is to educate the audience of the vulnerabilities that are associated with the devices of a smart city. We demonstrate an example of hands-on lab hacking a CCTV camera and some suggestions to prevent attacks on smart city.
