Item Restricted THE IMPACT OF POPULATION DENSITY AND CYBERSECURITY CHALLENGES IN SMART CITY CREATION(ProQuest, 2024-01-05) Bafail, Ghayda Abdullah; Schaeffer, DonnaWhile the population is growing at a rapid rate worldwide, many people are moving from rural areas to cities when general economic conditions change, looking for good opportunities, better jobs, education, easy life, and better infrastructure. The majority of the population is expected to live in smart cities over the next thirty years. This research contains two parts: quantitative and qualitative. The quantitative part measures the impact of population density on smart-city creation, analyzing thirty-nine countries that have invested in information, communication, and technology (ICT) and ICT goods export for twenty-one years to assess the relationship between population density and smart-city development. The qualitative part briefly discusses the collision of policy, privacy, and ethics in smart cities, which are a top priority in building and developing the smart city, and the main issues policymakers should address when designing smart cities with respect to cybersecurity issues.27 0
