Important results from the project
The goal was to create trust and acceptance for the Internet of Things (IoT), with wireless smart sensors/actuators, by ensuring safety, security, privacy and trustability. The focus has been on applications like intelligent mobility for road/rail/air, as well as construction technology, smart homes/infrastructures and health. The project has created comprehensive, cost-effective solutions for wireless, end-to-end secure, and trustworthy connectivity, e.g. in the form of advanced IoT security paradigms, IoT privacy labelling and a framework for reliable IoT services.
Expected long term effects
The main achievements of the project have been identified as follows by the international project leader: - Boosting Security, Privacy, Safety and Trust for IoT - Ensuring Industry-compliant Connectivity via Cloud Integration - Developing Innovative Energy-constrained and Autonomous IoT Components - Providing a Reference Architecture for Secure Connected Trustable Things demonstrated across 5 Domains - Design a scientifically sound yet practical Methodology for developing Trusted Systems
Approach and implementation
The project used a clear use case-driven method with 15 use cases to build digital ecosystems to achieve a broader market penetration for "trustable things that communicate securely". Tangible results in the form of at least one demonstrator for each use case were reported at the end of the project. (Due to covid restrictions only digitally.) The project also resulted in 168 publications and a number of dissemination activities (workshops, hackathons, conference sessions, etc.).
