Quantum network attacks are a serious risk to urban IoT systems by targeting weaknesses in conventional cryptographic protocols. In contrast to classical cyber threats, quantum-powered attacks can decrypt commonly used encryption schemes, leaving vital smart city networks, such as traffic management systems, power grids, and public surveillance, vulnerable. The emergent nature of quantum computing calls for an active response to securing urban IoT systems from prospective vulnerabilities that can impair critical services and undermine public security. The inherent complexity of urban IoT infrastructures renders them extremely susceptible to quantum-based cyberattacks. Quantum decryption, man-in-the-middle attacks, and quantum-boosted malware pose risks that can expose sensitive information and facilitate large-scale cyber intrusions. 2026 by IGI Global Scientific Publishing.
