Wishing to be more friendly to their citizens and to be managed more efficiently, cities are using a variety of modern ICT solutions for their needs. In this way, the smart city concept is being implemented, using, among others, the Internet of Things (IoT), which will become a key tool to improve the functioning of urban agglomerations. This idea develops very dynamically and creates tremendous opportunities for smart cities. But in addition to the benefits it brings, it also creates serious threats, primarily for privacy and personal data protection. Its applications improve our lives but also create new forms of risk and become the challenge for security architects. The purpose of this paper is to review selected applications of the Internet of Things in the context of the smart city and to describe the cybersecurity threats resulting from widening access of new devices to the network in this area.

Miasta, chcąc być coraz bardziej przyjazne dla mieszkańców oraz coraz sprawniej zarządzane, wykorzystują na te potrzeby różne nowoczesne rozwiązania teleinformatyczne. W ten sposób wdrażana jest w życie idea inteligentnego miasta (ang. smart city), wykorzystująca m.in. systemy Internetu rzeczy (ang. Internet of Things, IoT), które będą stawać się kluczowym narzędziem usprawniającym funkcjonowanie aglomeracji miejskich. Koncepcja Internetu rzeczy rozwija się bardzo dynamicznie i stwarza ogromne możliwości dla inteligentnych miast. Oprócz korzyści, jakie przynosi, przynosi jednak też poważne zagrożenia, przede wszystkim dla prywatności i ochrony danych osobowych. Jej zastosowania usprawniają nasze życie, ale stwarzają nowe formy ryzyka i stanowią wyzwanie dla architektów systemów bezpieczeństwa. Celem artykułu jest przegląd wybranych przypadków użycia Internetu rzeczy w kontekście koncepcji inteligentnego miasta oraz opis zagrożeń dla cyberbezpieczeństwa, wynikających z poszerzania dostępu do sieci nowych urządzeń w tym obszarze.

Toys with integrated technology are not a new thing. We are familiar with talking dolls or remote control cars. However, the interactive toys connected to the internet, which has appeared in recent years, and which are the natural consequence of the development of the internet of things, may bring a revolution to the world of children. Following article is the result of the research project „Internet of Toys a support or a threat to child’s development?” aimed at verifying the readiness to introduce digital toys as well astesting what is the level of security associated with the smart connected toys usage. A mixed methods research: pilot qualitative study in the form of interviews concerning various attitudes and practices relating to the use of digital devices, in particular connected smart toys, together with a quantitative study, gave an overview on the smart toys popularisation and the level of knowledge about their safety. Moreover, tests over selected products from the viewpoint of cyber threats and precautions implemented bythe vendor made it possible to come up with safety recommendations for future or present smart connected toys users. Communicative companions may bring not only fun and education, but also a dose of threats. What happens to the data collected by the toys, how easy it is to reach unauthorised access to the device and who potentially may come into these data possession? Last but not least this article tries to answer the questions on what consequences might bring to children social development, permanent parental supervision,restrictions of children’s privacyand the possibility that digital toys might become a replacement of a real participation in the child’s life.
