Abstract | The integration of advanced technologies in Building Management Systems (BMS) has transformed the way buildings are monitored, controlled, and optimized. These systems utilize a variety of connected devices, including sensors, HVAC systems, and security solutions, all of which communicate via the Internet of Things (IoT). However, this digital transformation has led to new cybersecurity challenges, exposing buildings to increased risks from cyberattacks and security breaches. This paper aims to explore the vulnerabilities present in BMS and identify strategies to secure these systems against cyber threats. It reviews common security concerns, such as unauthorized access, data breaches, and exploitation of weak communication protocols, and offers practical recommendations for mitigating these risks. By employing advanced security measures such as encryption, multi-factor authentication, and real-time monitoring, BMS can be protected from potential cyber-attacks. This study highlights the critical role of securing BMS in the context of smart building technology, ensuring the safety, functionality, and efficiency of building operations. |
