Abstract

The cyber threat landscape has evolved in fairly dramatic ways.Cyber threats come in various different forms both technical and content related threats.Emerging threats have become sophisticated and a lot more disastrous involving state actors, state-sponsored actors, international organized criminals and Internet hacker activist groups. Today‘s cyber threats pose challenges to the Government, organizations and individuals as there is already a trend of cyber-attacks on critical infrastructure.In recognition of the Internet connectivity and its borderless feature, smart community is not spared from cyber threats.Hence, those who are concerned with smart community security should explore an effective strategy to respond to cyber challenges in a holistic perspective.It should include the establishment of suitable cooperation amongst public and private sectors as well as cyber security professionals.It is expected that the demand for cyber security will grow in years to come as we continue to invest on Information Communication Technology and networks towards developing smart community.
