Abstract: Abstract This study investigates the influencing factors of information security in smart cities, aiming to address the complex risks arising from the integration of technologies such as the Internet of Things, big data, and cloud computing. Based on a three-dimensional framework encompassing environmental, logical, and organizational dimensions, the research identifies key risk factors through questionnaires and the DEMATEL method. Findings reveal that mobile internet security access (B3), data leakage (B5), security vulnerabilities (B6), and data distortion (B10) are among the most critical factors affecting information security. The study further proposes strategies to enhance risk management, including strengthening institutional systems, promoting technological innovation, and raising public awareness. By providing a structured approach to risk identification and mitigation, this research offers theoretical and practical insights for ensuring the secure and sustainable development of smart cities.
