CERTIFY is a multi-partner research project which got funding under HORIZON-CL3-2021-CS-01.

  • Achieve High Level Security

  • Detect and Respond to a wide Spectrum of Attacks

  • Powered by Collaborative/Decentralized Technologies

CERTIFY will validate the architecture through cutting-edge use-cases and pave the way towards innovative security in a broad spectrum of IoT environments.

Start: 1st October 2022

Duration: 36 Months

Objectives

CERTIFY has SMART (Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Realistic and Timely) Specific Objectives.

  • Cybersecurity awareness for IoT-enabled environments through a multi-stakeholder sharing of threats and mitigations

  • Secure reconfiguration and maintenance of customizable embedded devices by means of open hardware primitives and services

  • Perform security operational management based on bootstrapping and monitoring of attacks and malicious behaviours

  • Runtime security compliance and continuous certification methodology via objective metrics

  • Foster knowledge delivery via wide dissemination, capacity building and supporting standardization activities. Build a robust exploitation plan to boost ROI by optimizing current and future EU cybersecurity capabilities

  • Industrial validation of the CERTIFY framework in IoT ecosystems

All objectives will be validated against well defined KPIs.

Ambitions

The main contributions of CERTIFY are as follows, going beyond the state of the art
