Project description

Platform for enhancing cyber-resilience

Today’s organisations need to be cyber resilient, equipped with advanced cybersecurity capabilities for ensuring quick recovery in the face of crippling modern cyber threats. The EU-funded SECANT project will develop an innovative cyber security risk assessment platform to enhance these capabilities to tackle cascading cyber threats and vulnerabilities, increasing privacy, data protection and accountability across the entire interconnected ICT ecosystem. The solution is expected to facilitate the collection, analysis and sharing of cyber threat intelligence among supply chain stakeholders and CERTs/CSIRTs. SECANT will also provide cutting-edge trust and accountability mechanisms for data protection and security awareness training to facilitate more informed cybersecurity decisions. The proposed solution will be validated in four realistic pilot use-case scenarios within the healthcare ecosystem.

Objective

The SECANT platform will enhance the capabilities of organisations’ stakeholders, implementing (a) collaborative threat intelligence collection, analysis and sharing; (b) innovative risk analysis specifically designed for interconnected nodes of an industrial ecosystem; (c) cutting-edge trust and accountability mechanisms for data protection and (d) security awareness training for more informed security choices. The proposed solution’s effectiveness and versatility will be validated in four realistic pilot use case scenarios applied in the healthcare ecosystem. Ultimately, SECANT will contribute decisively towards improving the readiness and resilience of the organisations against the crippling modern cyber-threats, increasing the privacy, data protection and accountability across the entire interconnected ICT ecosystem, and reducing the costs for security training in the European market.
