The DOSS EU Research and Innovation Project marks the end of its first year with the elaboration of the concept of the IoT Supply Trust Chain
The consortium of industrial actors, research institutes, and academia from 6 European countries focuses on improving the resilience of IoT supply chains.
Budapest, 31. August 2024 – A consortium of 12 European partners has joined forces to enhance the security and reliability of IoT operations by creating a more transparent supply chain environment.
The so-called Supply Trust Chain rests on the comprehensive security related documentation (Device Security Passport – DSP) of the IoT components, which is the basis of interconnected testing, modelling, validation, automated onboarding and operation monitoring activities.
Central to the Supply Trust Chain is the Device Security Passport (DSP), a machine-processable record that consolidates both legacy and newly developed cybersecurity information. DSPs are accessible to authorized stakeholders throughout the IoT supply chain and serve as the foundation for the DOSS project’s security modules, which will be used to ensure the security of IoT components from design to decommissioning. By connecting all phases of the supply chain, the Supply Trust Chain facilitates the sharing of security-relevant information among key stakeholders, enhancing transparency and thereby improving overall security.
The effectiveness of the Supply Trust Chain will be validated in three IoT use-cases – industrial (prosumer cell operation), consumer (smart home), and automotive (connected car).
The consortium represents a comprehensive cross-section of the IoT ecosystem, including service operators, OEMs, technology providers, developers, and security research experts. End users will also participate in a living lab environment to ensure practical applicability.
The project is coordinated by Atos Hungary.
