Securing IoT devices in smart cities of India: from ethical and enterprise information system management perspective

To improve quality of life to the citizens, Government of India has proposed to create 100 Smart Cities in India (SCI). Each entity in SCI (enterprises) remains connected using Enterprise Information System (EIS) management. Citizens in SCI are also expected to use Internet of Things (IoT) enabled devices which will generate huge amount of data (Big Data). These data need to be protected. This would require efficient use of preventive technologies by the enterprises along with human efforts. In this paper some hypotheses and a conceptual model have been provided. These are validated through survey works with 331 usable respondents.
