Data analysis is growing in importance. A significant percentage of connected cities analyze data for insights into their IT infrastructure , payment and financial systems , mobility and transportations systems , and physical and digital security . Fewer than half of the cities surveyed consider themselves “well prepared” for cyberattacks. That finding suggests that as cities invest in connectivity projects and processes, they realize their expanding vulnerabilities

Fewer than half of the 100 cities say their staffs have the requisite skills in data analytics, strategic thinking, and problem-solving to advance their connectivity projects. Among other emerging technologies, two-thirds of connected cities say they’re already investing in blockchain distributed ledger networks, and those investments are expected to increase during the next three years, especially in the areas of governance, funding, construction, and maintenance. The cities surveyed also expressed interest in using 5G mobile networks, robots, drones, and augmented reality.
