To enhance Airbus' existing maturity assessment framework with the project outputs leading to improved secure communications and incident response, and paving the way for a secure and resilient supply chain network.

SFF.DeepT+ Project sets the pathway to the future, towards 2030 and beyond, with a new Systemic DeepTech Innovation framework involving (as drivers and key-actors) the relevant stakeholders of an Open European Innovation Ecosystem. The Project is grounded in the consolidated Start for Future initiative and community, being the driver of a NEW DEAL OF INNOVATION bringing, and bridging the Knowledge Triangle partners, together with an effective collaborative capacity built through the understanding of interconnectedness in achieving synergies of co-creation among partners, being  capable of adapting for changes emerging from society.

CYRENE aims to enhance the security, privacy, resilience, accountability and trustworthiness of Supply Chains through the provision of a novel and dynamic Conformity Assessment Process that evaluates the security and resilience of supply chain services, the interconnected IT infrastructures composing these services and the individual devices that support the operations of the SCs. In particular, the proposed CAP will support, at different levels, SCs security officers and operators to recognize, identify, model, and dynamically analyse cyber risks. Moreover, it will support forecasting, treatment and response to advanced persistent threats and handle daily cyber-security and privacy risks, incidents and data breaches. 

The project will focus on securing autonomous transport. The main focus will be to adapt the SecurityOperation Center (SOC) concept for detecting, understanding, and responding to attacks on vehicles, airplanes, and vessels and connected mobility infrastructure (e.g. WiFi, 5G, etc). The project will define measurable aspects of a SOC that can be optimized during a SOC’s development, exercised, and reevaluated regularly to ensure ongoing effectiveness. This will be important for manufacturers to report to authorities about their operational capabilities. Finally, the project will build more resilient communications within the automated nodes themselves, recognizing that the SOC model might be too slow to detect and react to safety-related incidents before it is too late.

This project aims at designing a security maturity assessment framework for organizations in Saudi Arabia. The framework can be used as a self-assessment tool by the organization in order to establish the security level and highlight the weaknesses and mitigation plans that need to be implemented. The framework will be mapping and codification tool for organizations against all regulations that the Saudi organizations must comply to (e.g. CITC’s CRF or NCA’s ECC).

The project aims at designing a cyber security maturity assessment framework for all HEIs in the UK. The framework can be used as a self-assessment tool by the HEI organization in order to establishthe security level and highlight the weaknesses and mitigation plans that need to be implemented. The framework will be mapping and codification tool for HEIs against all regulations that the HEIs must comply to (GDPR, PCI DSS, DSPT etc).The framework will use 6 different levels of maturity against which the cyber security performance of each organization can be measured. The framework can also be adapted in order to be applied to other sectors, e.g. energy. The framework will be validated through 3 pilot implementations. HEIs, by using this framework will be able to assess the security level of their organization, conduct a gap analysis and create a mitigation plan. 

positions the CONCORDIA ecosystem, a Cybersecurity Competence Network with leading research, technology, industrial and public competences to build the European Secure, Resilient and Trusted Ecosystem, with the CODE research institute in Munich to act as the coordinating center, and ENISA as secretary. CONCORDIA will strongly liaise with ENISA to leverage its expertise and knowledge with ENISA being the interface to other cybersecurity actors and networks within the EU institutional framework and with established industry networks in the private sector, and playing the role of a secretariat(in a similar fashion to the way it offers secretariat functions to the CSIRT Network). Munich, as decided by the EC to be Europe’s top technology hub, gives the perfect ICT environment for CODE to be central hub of the network. 

By adopting a user-centred approach, FLOURISH[Innovate UK -CoI] achieved a better understanding of consumer demands and expectations, including the implications and challenges of an ageing society.  FLOURISH addressed vulnerabilities in the technology powering CAVs, with a focus on the critical areas of cyber security and wireless communications. The project was trialled in the Bristol and South Gloucestershire region and was part funded from the Government’s £100 million Intelligent Mobility Fund, which is administered by the Centre for Connected and Autonomous Vehicles (CCAV) and delivered by the UK’s Innovation Agency, Innovate UK. DMU was a subcontractor for the task of identification of security breaches in the network through anomaly detection and pattern recognition methods. 

FastPass established and demonstrated a harmonized, modular approach for Automated Border Control (ABC) gates. FastPass brings together key players of the entire ABC value chain - system and component producers, research institutions, governmental authorities and end-users.

CockpitCI[FP7] aimed to improve the resilience and dependability of Critical Infrastructures (CIs) by the automatic detection of cyber-threats and the sharing of real-time information about attacks among CI owners. CockpitCI aimed to identify, in real time, the CI functionalities impacted by cyber-attacks and assess the degradation of CI delivered services. CockpitCI aimed to classify the associated risk level, broadcast an alert at different security levels and activate a strategy of containment of the possible consequences of cyber-attacks. CockpitCI aimed to leverage the ability of field equipment to counteract cyber-attacks by deploying preservation and shielding strategies able to guarantee the required safety.

Optithesi's basic scopes were to investigate the optimization and the prediction of the dielectric behavior of especially air gaps, based on the effects of Ground, Corona Current, and Barrier, and the use of theoretical and simulation analysis. To reform the Corona Current Rule, concerning the Corona Current Effect and the effort to advance it in to a theorem after it is mathematically proven.

Reduction[FP7] followed an interdisciplinary approach bringing together expertise from several communities, such as: Data collection and management, which develop the mechanisms for handling the large volumes of streaming data; Data Mining/Machine Learning, which are responsible for developing decentralized algorithms for predictive analytics; Wireless Networks, for developing protocols for effective vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) and vehicle-to-infrastructure (V2I) communications; Vehicle electronics, which develop the on board computing and sensor devices; Transportation engineering, which are involved in the evaluation of the system and the data generated during the field-trials.
