Edge enabled Privacy and Security Platform for Multi Modal Transport

Project description

Keeping multimodal transport safe from cyberattacks

The EU is paving the way to multimodality in the transport sector. Multimodal mass transport – the use of different means of transport on the same journey – boasts more convenience, speed, reliability and predictability. But, as the threat of cyberattacks continues to rise, intelligent transportation systems need to be secured. The EU-funded E-CORRIDOR project will develop a flexible, secure and privacy-aware framework aimed at ensuring the safety and security of multimodal transport systems. Specifically, it will design a framework for the security of passengers and transportation operators. Collaborative policy-aware edge-enabled information sharing, analysis and protection-as-a-service will form the basis of the new framework.

Objective

E-CORRIDOR aims at providing a flexible, secure and privacy aware framework allowing confidential, distributed and edge enabled security services, as threat analysis and prevention as well as privacy aware seamless access mechanism in multi-modal transport systems.
Cyber attacks influence is growing in our everyday life, indeed the targets become our mobiles devices, our bank accounts or our new electric and autonomous vehicles. The need for protection of the cyber world which often has a significant convergence with the physical one, requires that both cyber and safety aspects must be managed together. Increased amount of information (and collaboration) allow for better prediction and management of cyber attacks. However, when sharing information, one wishes to retain control of the information, even when this information is shared for prediction of vulnerabilities of just for accessing systems (e.g. a transport one). There is the need and the opportunity to unleash the power of sharing.
E-CORRIDOR’s mission is to define a framework for multi-modal transport systems, which provides secure advanced services for passengers and transport operators. The framework includes collaborative privacy-aware edge-enabled information sharing, analysis and protection as a service. The project plans to show the applicability of this framework in at least two domains: (i) collaborative and confidential cyber threat management and (ii) seamless access mechanism in multimodal transport systems.
