Abstract Smart city development with proper use of emerging technologies greatly reduces security issues, reduces energy waste, saves time, and increases human safety in urban areas during urbanization. But, vulnerabilities in those technologies questioning the smart city's security. This study explored the cyber security issues in smart city technologies and find potential solutions. There are various technologies engaged with smart city development but the Internet of Things, sensor technologies, and cloud computing are the most use by the smart industries. Cyber adversaries targeting to weakening the organization's database breach, which increases financial losses and reduces human safety; Daniel of service attack was the major cyber-attack face by the smart cities. It is strongly suggested to implement Blockchain technologies while developing smart city developments. In addition to that, it is also suggested to implement strong cyber security policies in terms of confidentiality, integrity, and authentication within the organization.
