The new IoTAC security model for IoT architectures will be deployed and validated in four different pilots, representing diverse industry domains. In the case of the connected car, the pilot will provide a cooperative, connected and automated (CCAM) scenario, where V2X (Vehicle to Everything) data exchange enables cooperative manoeuvres integrating…
While the Zero Trust Model of Cybersecurity was created by John Kindervag back in 2009, it has become a buzzword in recent years, and more of a priority due to COVID-19 and the remote work economy, as it offers an optimal way to address current security challenges for a cloud-first,…

The operate and monitor phases are the final phases of the SDLC. They are collectively referred to as the maintenance phase and they are commonly thought of as a rather passive part of the process, but nothing could be further from the truth. This is where all the action is.…

With all the interconnected devices in the world, integrated seamless communication is a must. This always-available access is seemingly at odds with the goal of security. Additionally, the way in which applications are built has changed over time with many companies merging agile techniques with development and operation processes. The…

According to current reports like in “A survey of emerging threats in cybersecurity” a large number of security breaches in software systems are due to internal security vulnerabilities. These security risks usually originate in the implementation or in the third-party libraries used. The Open Web Application Security Project (OWASP) regularly…
In recent years, the software development paradigm has evolved under the influence of several key trends. The wider adoption of Agile and DevOps practices has increased the pace in which applications are packaged, built, and shipped to production. The fast pace of digitalisation in enterprises has created a push for…
New approaches, new elements, new combinations of already existing elements are what IoTAC is supposed to deliver in the area of IoT. The question a software technologist always poses is whether the novelty of an approach in any area of software development exempts designers and developers from using well-established approaches…

Software Security by Design The high interconnectivity that characterizes modern IoT Systems, along with the increasing accessibility of their devices through the Internet, renders their security an aspect of major concern for IoT users and providers. The importance of securing IoT Systems is further supported by the important security incidents…
What is a Honeypot? Honeypots are software designed to detect novel and emerging attack patterns against a specific system. Hence, a vulnerable version of the protected system will be created, which typically represents the easiest way to attack a system. With special preparation, a honeypot serves as a trap that…
In the IoTAC project, we are looking at different IoT architectures to identify best practices, potential weaknesses and to understand the difference between the various approaches. Below we give a short summary of four architectures we have analyzed. ISO/IEC Internet of Things (IoT) Reference Architecture ISO/IEC 30141 is an…
