Projects about Cybersecurity

The European funded KONFIDO project is working on an innovative architecture that enables secure exchange, processing, and storage of health related data. Meet Kenneth and his healthcare professionals who can authenticate themselves with their national issued eID and get secure access to health records in another country.

The PQCRYPTO project focused on developing post-quantum cryptographic techniques.

The Secured project devised a system for keeping multiple devices at the same time safe from security threats, without asking individual users to take action.

The EU-funded Privacy Flag project helps people to check that their data is protected online.

Storing and especially using information about threats and malware should not be difficult. MISP is there to help you get the maximum out of your data without unmanageable complexity. The MISP threat sharing platform is a free and open source software helping information sharing of threat intelligence including cyber security indicators. The platform is funded under the Connecting Europe Facility.

The online advertising explosion is raising serious data privacy and security concerns.The EU-funded TYPES project ‘protects individuals’ privacy while empowering them to control how their data is used by service providers for advertising purposes,’ says Rosa Araujo, project coordinator for the EU-funded initiative. ‘By raising end user trust and advertiser transparency, all stakeholders of the advertising ecosystem stand to benefit.’

The EU-funded VISION project has developed a visual privacy platform to help public entities deliver transparent and privacy-enhanced e-government services that meet the highest privacy standards and offer citizens personalised control over their data.

In the European Union ports play a vital role by facilitating external trade and passenger movement. Ports play a unique role in the global supply chain. They also provide the necessary infrastucture for pleasure cruises. The EU-funded project SAURON helps port operators to guarantee security for their employees, visitors, passengers and citizens living in the port’s vicinity by combining the most advanced techniques related to prevention, detection and mitigation of threats.

The European Commission recently approved the project YAKSHA, which will reinforce European Union (EU) and Association of South East Asian Nations (ASEAN) cooperation and build partnerships in the Cybersecurity domain by developing a solution tailored to specific users and national needs, leveraging EU Know-how and expertise. YAKSHA will develop innovative methods for malware detection, collection and analysis, as well as design a specialised system to be used for long-term storage and analysis of the information, and deploy standard information formats and interfaces to facilitate intero

Two newly-discovered security flaws in computer processors, named Meltdown and Spectre, could allow unauthorised users to gain direct access to the heart of computer systems and steal personal data. The vulnerabilities were discovered by an international research team, in which Graz University of Technology’s Institute of Applied Information Processing and Communications (TU Graz, Austria) played a central role. The EU's European Research Council (ERC) has been supporting this research project since 2016, to the tune of two-million euro.
