Abstract

A smart community is a collection of interdependent human-cyber-physical systems, in which the states of these systems are estimated and adapted by IoT technology. It enables sustainable societies that can offer increased well being, safety, and security. However, a smart community may be susceptible to novel forms of cyber-attacks. This article highlights GPS security vulnerabilities of unmanned ground vehicles (UGVs), which will become more popular in smart communities. We show that UGVs do not have adequate protection against GPS spoofing attacks. Consequently, they can easily be penetrated by attackers.
