Secure COnnected Trustable Things - European collaboration within secu

Aim and goal

The Internet of Things (IoT) is one of the major enablers of the digital transformation trend Europe currently is facing. It represents the vision that every object and location in the physical world can become part of the Internet. SCOTT bundles the European key players from several industrial domains including building and home / smart infrastructure, automotive, aeronautics, rail, and health to make full potential of cross-domain synergies and to strengthen Europe’s position in the emerging technology field of secure IoT.

Challenge

Physical parts of the IoT such as sensors/actuators and wired communication are generally well developed and established. However, creating trust in wireless solutions and increasing their social acceptance is thus one of the major challenges to bring out the full potential of the IoT.

Solution

SCOTT provides comprehensive cost-efficient solutions of wireless, end-to-end secure, trustworthy connectivity and interoperability using a standardized multi-domain reference architecture, being fully compliant with ISO 29182 – Sensor Network Reference Architecture, which fosters reusability, scalability, and interoperability of SCOTT solutions.

RISE created an innovation initiative based on data-driven services to explore the use of telematics platforms and data for 3rd-parties. Several actors were involved including business innovation, software and platform engineering and analytics and keystone firms/OEM. The resulting cloud service for quantified connected passenger vehicles and integrated third/party authentication services for access management and control for access protection, were developed and tested to support the design of novel data-driven services.

Effect

Tangible results from all use cases will ultimately be shown to a broader public via more than 20 demonstrators all over Europe. Use Cases will be further substantiated by the development and utilization of nearly 50 technical building blocks for security/safety, distributed cloud integration, energy efficiency/autonomy of devices and reference architecture/implementations, which are all necessary to realize the SCOTT use cases and facilitate composability of systems as well as cross-domain sharing of trustable wireless technologies and services.
