Abstract: Abstract The Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) possesses a unique opportunity to realize secure internet-of-things (IoT) applications for government and public safety services. The security of IoT is considered to be of the same level of importance as public safety networks. This chapter discusses the security vulnerabilities of such a promising technology and presents the approach to mitigate them today through a vision of unification and cooperation of public safety agencies in the GCC. Methods of security implementation, based on the fundamentals of intelligence sharing are provided and discussed. The work in this chapter also establishes the economies of scale that can be leveraged by the GCC member states to secure IoT for smart cities.
