Future Perspective of Quantum Cryptography for Smart Cities of the 21st Century

Shalbani Das, Ajanta Das

Maintaining security in smart cities and various smart applications has become a most challenging research domain to provide secure access to the society. Exposure of digital data to intruders can easily happen through different smart gadgets knowingly or unknowingly. To ensure security, the role of quantum cryptography is essential in this regard. Quantum cryptography is achieved by utilizing the polarization property of photon and quantum key distribution (QKD). In contrast to a classical computer, quantum computers achieve exponential speedup through reversible operations with the intention to provide security without compromising processing speed in smart applications. In this chapter, concepts, features, and technologies of smart cities are presented. Next, the important role of quantum computing in security with quantum key distribution protocols are explained. This chapter presents an algorithm of encryption and secret key to give the insights of QKD protocol. The chapter concludes with future directives of QKD in smart cities.

Post-Quantum Blockchain for a Scalable Smart City

Abir El Azzaoui, Jong Hyuk Park

Smart Cities enclose various industries, sectors, and components. A Smart City application benefits from the data collected using a tremendous number of sensors serving to establish an accurate corporative decision. However, the communication between different components and application of a Smart City exhort security measures as it faces critical security attacks and integrity issues. To medicate this dilemma, researches have used the assistant of Blockchain to secure Smart Cities and improve its decision’s accuracy. Yet, with the recent development of Quantum Computers, Quantum-based algorithms are certainly menacing the security of classical encryption together with Blockchain itself. Thus, threaten the insurance of Blockchain-based application including critical applications such as Smart Cities. In this paper, we demonstrate the Blockchain-based Smart Cities’ framework and we present an understanding overview that encloses the menaces of a Quantum computer on Blockchain and Blockchain-based applications essentially Smart City. We explain as well some Post-Quantum solutions concerning the security of Blockchain-based Smart City.
