Abstract Cities are evolving into smart urban environments, where various devices, technologies, services, connections, blocks, and storage systems are transforming to embrace smart solutions, departing from traditional counterparts. This intricate network of interconnected devices collectively constitutes the Internet of Things (IoT), promising users a life of enhanced convenience. However, this transformation also introduces challenges, particularly in managing loosely linked devices and transmitting information across networks. This study conducts a comprehensive review of the various components contributing to the formation of a smart city, scrutinizing the challenges and factors that influence them. The overarching objective is to identify specific areas within smart cities grappling with cybersecurity challenges and ascertain the relative significance of each area. Data for this research is gathered through questionnaires, expert opinions, and paired comparisons drawn from previous studies, and employs the Fuzzy Analytic Hierarchy Process approach to determine the weight of each factor and sub-factor, subsequently ranking them. Among the nine identified factors, the "Smart Security" factor is the most critical, with a weight of 0.198, signifying its paramount importance. To overcome the security challenges in smart cities, we introduce an advanced secure framework (ARPL) for detecting security threats, using the Routing Protocol for Low Power and Lossy Networks (RPL) as its foundation. The advanced framework is adept at identifying a variety of attacks. Performance assessments of the proposed framework encompass several key parameters, such as ADA, TPR, FPR, and end-to-end delay. The positive outcomes observed strongly endorse the effectiveness of the proposed framework, positioning it as an optimal solution for RPL-based smart environments. © 2024 by author(s).
