Cybersecurity research based on NFV (Network Function Virtualization) and SDN (Software Define Network).
A large number of devices (gadgets, drones and even devices embedded in clothing) are currently connected to the Internet, interacting with each other. Their applications often overlook the security and protection of personal information, which has recently led to a series of cyber-attacks on personal data. The lack of an industrial and academic consensus for the standardization of processes, protocols and practices for the provision of services for this type of infrastructure has not helped either.
OdinS brings its extensive experience in IoT cybersecurity to the project, providing solutions to create a comprehensive IoT equipment platform.
OdinS will also implement mechanisms to monitor devices, respond to cyber attacks and manage the development of control agents embedded in local devices or remote servers. The response to detected cyber attacks will be automatic.
“The ANASTACIA project aims to overcome these problems with a comprehensive platform to provide secure services in IoT-based architectures,” explains Rodrigo Díaz, head of the Atos Cyber Security Laboratory. «The solution will provide mechanisms to guarantee security in each phase of the life cycle of these services: from development with solutions based on the principles of Security by Design, to the evaluation and reaction to risks and threats based on device monitoring. «.
In addition, ANASTACIA will allow the integration of resources present in other types of networks, such as Cloud, through the orchestration of virtual components such as Software Defined Networking (SDN) and Network Function Virtualization (NFV). , for greater control over the overall security of the system. ANASTACIA will also develop a Security and Privacy certificate that will provide a global vision of the security level of an IoT infrastructure.
Co-financed by the European Commission’s Horizon 2020 program.
ANASTACIA is supported by a consortium of 14 partners from 7 different countries, including Atos (Spain), Softeco (Italy), Thales (France), Ericsson (Finland) Odin Solutions (Spain), University of Murcia (Spain), Montimage (France), National Council for Scientific Research (CNR), Aalto University (Finland), Ubitech (Greece), Mandat International (Switzerland), Device Gateway (Switzerland) and Archimede Solutions.
