- The number of Smart Cities have evolved in recent years and the concept is expanding in cities worldwide. Smart Cities have many potential advantages but to achieve these advantages Smart Cities must protect security and individual privacy. Addressing existing challenges in certain areas becomes critical to achieve further improvement and security and privacy concerns are very important in the Smart City because of the increasing number of Smart Cities around the world. Therefore, the aim of this study is to investigate in what ways Smart Cities work with security and privacy challenges. The study is based on a research model that is developed from a literature review on security and privacy challenges, consequences of challenges and solutions to challenges. Our results show that Smart Cities work with technology-, policy, regulatory and legal-, and governance and management solutions and they are all together very important. The results indicate that the Smart Cities work with leadership and planning when it comes to security and privacy. However, objectives for security and privacy, and also education and training related to security and privacy in the Smart Cities are things they do not work with today which needs more consideration.
