Kurzfassung
The Internet of Things (IoT) presents transformative opportunities for connectivity and automation across various sectors, but it also introduces significant security risks that need to be comprehensively addressed. Indeed, the growing integration of IoT devices, including their vulnerabilities, into critical infrastructures amplifies potential risks in daily life, making these systems prime targets for cybercriminal activities, including espionage and sabotage. Cases where IoT devices have been misused, due to firmware vulnerabilities, embedded passwords, and hidden backdoors are real-world scenarios, that pose significant threats to privacy and security. That’s why this paper aims to point out the urgency of addressing these issues as IoT applications continue to proliferate across healthcare, transportation, urban development and other sectors. Different types of vulnerabilities and their implications with focus on urban critical infrastructures, which can lead to severe consequences like energy blackouts, water contamination, and widespread service disruptions, especially in densely populated areas, are discussed. Moreover, the need of a multidimensional approach that encompasses technological, legal, social, and economic considerations, to deal with those broader cybersecurity and risk management implications of IoT is highlighted. As a consequence, the need for continuous evolution in security strategies to keep pace with the rapid advancements in IoT technologies is pointed out, thus arguing for a proactive approach to safeguard IoT systems against emerging threats and to ensure the safe and resilient operation of these increasingly integral parts of modern critical infrastructures.
