Challenges and Potential Solutions Using IoT Applications in Smart Cities for COVID-19

Abstract

Modern technology, which includes 5G/6G networks and the Internet of Things (IoT), is critical for dealing with public health emergencies, as the COVID-19 pandemic has proven. Thanks to their ability to accumulate and examine statistics in real time, those technologies have played a key role in improving COVID-19 screening, monitoring, and therapy. The necessity of records protection is highlighted by the dependence on IoT gadgets, though, specifically in light of the potentially fatal threats linked to any flaws in these systems. The stability of society and national safety rely upon IoT tool protection, no longer merely the protection of private records. In order to lessen the pandemic's consequences, specifically in closely populated metropolitan areas, researchers from all around the world are concentrating on developing safe Internet of Things options. Assessing present packages, recognizing any protection dangers, and strengthening safeguards are all a part of this endeavour. Improving IoT protection frameworks is essential as those technologies are important to handling pandemics, and this underscores the need for continuous studies and development to defend public fitness from gift and upcoming threats.
