Implementation of IoTs in Smart Cities

ABSTRACT : The Internet of Things (IoT) describes a special network with many physical things which have embedded sensors, software, and other technologies. These devices, such as traffic lights, vehicles, home alarms and other objects are connected for the purpose of exchanging data with other devices and systems over the internet. The IoT technology is utilized by Smart Cities, to offer many benefits to the state in conjunction with LP-WAN. In this assignment we will refer to LP-WAN in wireless communication technology and the three famous technologies that support this technology, which are SigFox, LoRaWAN and NB-IoT and how to apply in the smart cities. In addition, we will report a threat that smart cities face nowadays, and specifically we will describe what the DDoS threat is and how it can affect the network of smart cities. Finally, we describe a recent incident DDoS attack, approaching the incident which is known Stuxnet

Key Words: LPWAN, SigFox, NB-IoT, LoRa, Smart Cities, DDoS, Stuxnet
