Abstract

Smart cities represent a promising paradigm aimed at enhancing citizens’ quality of life through cutting-edge infrastructure and technological advancements. Collaborative services serve as a cornerstone for any smart city, fostering seamless cooperation among diverse entities, including government agencies, businesses, and individuals, thereby enhancing community outcomes. These services are pivotal, promoting seamless communication and collaboration among various smart applications, and facilitating data exchange, resource sharing, and functional interactions within smart city environments to optimize efficiency, effectiveness, and user experiences. However, the development and deployment of secure, interoperable services in smart cities present significant challenges. These issues encompass, ensuring data security compliance during interoperation, effective management of interconnected services, securely handling sensitive data across services, and addressing issues related to confidentiality, integrity, and availability (CIA) traits. To tackle these challenges, this research proposes an innovative adaptive security governance framework tailored for smart cities. This framework relies on dynamic security policies implemented through smart contracts to guarantee data security and privacy during smart service interoperation. Real-world use cases in collaborative smart city environments validate the framework, integrating multi-chain blockchain technology, smart services APIs, and Software-Defined Networking (SDN), showcasing its ability to enhance security and efficiency in collaborative services. This study contributes to the development of safe and efficient collaborative services inside smart cities, tackling administrative issues while emphasizing data security and privacy. Smart cities may improve citizens’ living conditions while successfully addressing crucial security problems in an ever-changing environment by using this architecture.

面向智慧城市服务互操作的基于智能合约的自适应安全治理架构

智慧城市是一种前景广阔的模式，旨在通过最先进的基础设施和技术进步提高市民的生活质量。协作服务是任何智慧城市的基石，可促进政府机构、企业和个人等不同实体之间的无缝合作，从而提高社区成果。这些服务至关重要，可促进各种智能应用之间的无缝通信和协作，并促进智能城市环境中的数据交换、资源共享和功能交互，从而优化效率、效益和用户体验。然而，在智慧城市中开发和部署安全、可互操作的服务面临着重大挑战。这些问题包括：在互操作过程中确保数据安全合规、有效管理互联服务、安全处理跨服务的敏感数据，以及解决与保密性、完整性和可用性（CIA）特征相关的问题。为应对这些挑战，本研究提出了一个为智慧城市量身定制的创新型自适应安全治理框架。该框架依赖于通过智能合约实施的动态安全策略，以保证智能服务互操作过程中的数据安全和隐私。协作式智慧城市环境中的真实用例验证了该框架，它集成了多链区块链技术、智能服务 API 和软件定义网络（SDN），展示了其在协作式服务中提高安全性和效率的能力。这项研究有助于在智慧城市内开发安全高效的协作服务，在解决管理问题的同时强调数据安全和隐私。智慧城市可以利用这一架构改善市民的生活条件，同时成功解决不断变化的环境中的关键安全问题。
