Abstract

Purpose – Information security management (ISM) is proving to be an important topic in the modern world; in environments that will rely a great deal on digital technologies, such as smart cities, ISM research is of high importance and needs to be well analysed. The paper aims to discuss these issues. Design/methodology/approach – This paper indicates the criticality of ISM for smart cities through the literature, then focusses on top organisational factors influencing ISM in smart city organisations, which are embraced and justified from the literature. Findings – This paper highlights the need for more research around ISM in the context of smart city organisations, also ISM-related organisational factors that are expected to most influence smart city organisational performance. Research limitations/implications – This paper is proposed to influence more research in the area of ISM for smart cities among the research community. Additional research is also expected to further validate and examine the selected organisational factors. Originality/value – This paper presents new information on ISM in smart city organisations, the lack of research in this area, and the criticality of the highlighted issues, creates high value for the conclusions and findings of this research. The paper also highlights top organisational factors that are expected to influence ISM in smart city organisations.

Conclusions

Analysing the efforts being put into the development of smart city and IoT solutions, a great deal is being done to define technologies and solutions to deal with the ICT infrastructure, to develop services and tools for the businesses and the infrastructure, which will benefit smart city advanced services, performance and sustainability. The lack of security consideration in the development of smart city solutions should not be justified by sustainability and cost effectiveness goals. It will be a root cause for problems that could only cause damage and losses and therefore delay the diffusion of the smart city concept globally. Information security issues will also place more dependence and accountability on robust and wise management of ICT security threats; smart governance will be significant in strategically driving business assurance and security to run over safe environments mitigating the smartness digital downsides.

More research is needed to solve the current issues with information security governance for smart cities; this is in order to best comply with needs and requirements, also helping the control and management of future cyber threats. In this paper we discussed smart city issues related to information security governance, we highlighted the significance of information security and ISM issues for smart city organisations and the lack of research in this area, we also selected the ISM-related organisational factors that are expected to be most influential on the smart city organisational performance.
