“…If a hacker has the ability to intervene in the operation of the pacemaker by increasing or decreasing the heart rate, it will result in a life-threatening issue. In addition, the real-time medical data record, privacy, and maintenance must be authenticated to avoid the leakage of the patient data and to ensure the patient's privacy protection [125].…”

As the world becomes increasingly urbanized, the development of smart cities and the deployment of IoT applications will play an essential role in addressing urban challenges and shaping sustainable and resilient urban environments. However, there are also challenges to overcome, including privacy and security concerns, and interoperability issues. Addressing these challenges requires collaboration between governments, industry stakeholders, and citizens to ensure the responsible and equitable implementation of IoT technologies in smart cities. The IoT offers a vast array of possibilities for smart city applications, enabling the integration of various devices, sensors, and networks to collect and analyze data in real time. These applications span across different sectors, including transportation, energy management, waste management, public safety, healthcare, and more. By leveraging IoT technologies, cities can optimize their infrastructure, enhance resource allocation, and improve the quality of life for their citizens. In this paper, eight smart city global models have been proposed to guide the development and implementation of IoT applications in smart cities. These models provide frameworks and standards for city planners and stakeholders to design and deploy IoT solutions effectively. We provide a detailed evaluation of these models based on nine smart city evaluation metrics. The challenges to implement smart cities have been mentioned, and recommendations have been stated to overcome these challenges.

To ensure high-reliability communication in healthcare networks, this paper presents a smart gateway system that includes an angle-of-arrival (AOA) estimation and a beam steering function for a small circular antenna array. To form a beam toward healthcare sensors, the proposed antenna estimates the direction of the sensors utilizing the radio-frequency-based interferometric monopulse technique. The fabricated antenna was assessed based on the measurements of complex directivity and the over-the-air (OTA) testing in Rice propagation environments using a two-dimensional fading emulator. The measurement results reveal that the accuracy of the AOA estimation agrees well with that of the analytical data obtained through the Monte Carlo simulation. This antenna is embedded with a beam steering function employing phased array technology, which can form a beam spaced at 45° intervals. The ability of full-azimuth beam steering with regard to the proposed antenna was evaluated by beam propagation experiments using a human phantom in an indoor environment. The received signal of the proposed antenna with beam steering increases more than that of a conventional dipole antenna, confirming that the developed antenna has great potential of achieving high-reliability communication in a healthcare network.

“…The work in [ 9 ] focused on enabling penetration testing techniques in healthcare IoT devices, in an automatic and systematic manner. Finally, the work in [ 10 ] provides a rigorous and updated state-of-the-art revision of the available mechanisms for healthcare IoT devices. It is relevant to note that this work highlights the fact that, although the use of cryptographic keys is widespread in security architectures, there is limited research on creating, managing, and moving keys in resource-constrained environments.…”

Internet of Things cybersecurity is gaining attention as the number of devices installed in IoT environments is exponentially increasing while the number of attacks successfully addressed to these devices are also proliferating. Security concerns have, however, been mainly addressed to service availability and information integrity and confidentiality. Code integrity, on the other hand, is not receiving proper attention, mainly because of the limited resources of these devices, thus preventing the implementation of advanced protection mechanisms. This situation calls for further research on how traditional mechanisms for code integrity can be adapted to IoT devices. This work presents a mechanism for code integrity in IoT devices based on a virtual-machine approach. A proof-of-concept virtual machine is presented, specially designed for providing code integrity during firmware updates. The proposed approach has been experimentally validated in terms of resource consumption among the most-widespread micro-controller units. The obtained results demonstrate the feasibility of this robust mechanism for code integrity.
