Post-Quantum Cryptography and IoT Communications for Sustainable Urban Development

The rise of quantum computing poses a major threat to traditional encryption methods, potentially compromising the security of data that underpins critical smart city operations. As urban infrastructures increasingly rely on internet of things (IoT) systems for transportation, energy, public safety, and resource management, safeguarding these networks against quantum-enabled cyberattacks become essential for resilience and stability. Implementing post-quantum cryptographic solutions ensures that sensitive information remains protected, enabling cities to operate efficiently while maintaining public trust. Strengthening IoT security in this way not only addresses immediate cybersecurity risks but also supports the long-term sustainability and adaptability of urban environments. Post-Quantum Cryptography and IoT Communications for Sustainable Urban Development addresses the urgent need for secure IoT communications in smart city infrastructures by exploring quantum cryptographic solutions. It focuses on this crucial challenge by exploring state-of-the-art post-quantum cryptographic algorithms designed to handle quantum attacks and threats, thereby ensuring robust data security and integrity in urban IoT networks. Covering topics such as quantum-network attacks, smart urban ecosystems, and symmetric cryptography, this book is an excellent resource for academicians, researchers, engineers, technologists, city planners, and more.
