The DOSS – Secure-By-Design IoT Operation With Supply Chain Control – project aims to improve the security and reliability of IoT operations by introducing an integrated monitoring and validation framework to IoT Supply Chains, including all the relevant stakeholders. DOSS elaborates on a secure-by-design methodology and implements related technology based on formalized data exchange, component testing, and architecture modeling.
DOSS
DESIGN AND OPERATION OF SECURE IoT SUPPLY CHAIN
The Concept
USPs outline
What is this solution offering that’s different?
End-to-end communication
The DOSS “Supply Trust Chain” connects all relevant stakeholders with a formalized communication flow to facilitate monitoring of the movement of IoT devices from manufacturers all the way to decommissioning.
Multi-level security testing
DOSS establishes a comprehensive testing model covering all IoT components, including the binary testing of IoT devices, black-box analysis of 3rd party applications, vulnerability assessment on open-source applications, and internal developments the result of which will provide solid evidence of the existence or absence of vulnerabilities.
Security modeling in digital twin
DOSS will use an AI-assisted, flexibly configurable cybersecurity digital twin to simulate already in the design phase the architecture of selected IoT operations to identify potential attack scenarios, to analyze their impact, and to elaborate the necessary countermeasures.
Security feedback from operation
The DOSS IoT “Supply Trust Chain” also comprises the highly protected IoT operation itself, which is integrated into the communication loop to provide relevant security-related information to other actors of the IoT supply chain.

Dear Colleagues, As Chair of the Academia Europaea Informatics Section, we had organized a workshop in 2024 in London, and in 2025 in Paris, that addressed the Advances and Challenges of AI, with speakers from within and outside Academia Europaea. The announcements and programs of these two previous workshops are…
From Research to Impact: Why Cross-Project Collaboration Matters in European Cybersecurity
Innovation is often measured by the quality of research or the novelty of a technological breakthrough. Yet, the true value of innovation begins when research results are adopted, reused, and translated into tangible impact. For European research and innovation projects, exploitation is not simply the final stage of a project—it…
