Computação ubíqua e os desafios de segurança, privacidade e ética nas smart cities

Abstract

The integration of ubiquitous computing in smart cities increases urban efficiency but raises challenges in terms of security, privacy, and ethics. This study, based on a literature review, maps the risks and solutions of this digital transformation, focusing on the vulnerabilities of IoT, Big Data, and the implications of surveillance in sectors such as public safety, mobility, health, and governance. The results highlight strategies such as Privacy by Design, Security by Design, Zero Trust architectures, and the importance of the LGPD. It is concluded that smart and humane cities depend on a balance between technological innovation and the protection of fundamental rights.
