Smart Cities, Smarter Cybercrime: The Herculean Task of Blue Teams
Defending a Smart City is like trying to stop a toddler from spilling juice—impossible without help! Enter SCOPE, a new tool designed to help blue teams manage the chaos of cyber threats in Smart City Infrastructure. It’s technology-agnostic and built to handle emerging technologies. Sorry, toddlers not included.
Hot Take:
Let’s face it, blue teams are like the unsung heroes of the cybersecurity world, juggling more roles than a one-person circus act! They’re the overworked air traffic controllers of the digital skies, constantly on the lookout for cyber criminals trying to crash the Smart City party. But fear not, because our knights in shining armor have a new weapon in their arsenal: the Smart City Ontological Paradigm Expression (SCOPE). It’s like a Swiss Army knife for cyber threats, but with fewer corkscrews and more cyber sleuthing.
Key Points:
- Blue teams are the defenders in the cybersecurity world, tasked with detecting and stopping threats.
- Smart Cities are becoming a reality, posing new challenges for cybersecurity.
- SCOPE is an ontology designed to tackle cyber threats in Smart City Infrastructure.
- SCOPE extends existing ontologies, UCO and CASE, to include Smart City context.
- The ontology is publicly available for digital forensic investigators to prepare for future SCI cybercrimes.
