Call
Detailed Call Description
Cyber threat intelligence and situational awareness need to be developed from the current research level towards strategic considerations, and down to real-time events. This requires collaboration and data sharing between different security actors and should be based on a collection of heterogeneous data, models and predictions for multi-level security.
Research should address the risks and impact of a cyber-incident on the business itself. The research should include a proof of concept in order to validate the claimed progress and show the benefits in an adequate testing environment involving real end-users.
The proposal should be covering two or more business sectors and supporting their private and public actors as well as build on existing research and projects, clearly identify the state-of-the-art and explain the strengths of the new solution in the context of the chosen sectors. Additionally, the proposed solutions should include dynamic execution of disruption recovery and business continuity processes. They should dynamically extract all relevant digital evidence, information and digital traces, provide real-time personalised technical assistance, share information and real-time alerts with relevant stakeholders.
This Action should be in line with the NIS Directive.
Participation of SMEs is encouraged.
