Resilmesh Open Call 1: Cybersecurity applied to critical infrastructures
The call will be open to cybersecurity applications and software developers to provide new anomaly detection or correlation algorithms.
Funding
The project will select five proposals with a maximum amount of €72,000, to be paid in a single installment.
Eligibility criteria
- Legal entities or consortia of legal entities, which can be either mid-caps, SMEs or research organisations (RTOs or academia).
- In the case of consortium-type applications, the leading partner will be responsible for the technical developments, the other member will be an end user responsible to validate the technical developments.
Challenges
1. Extension to new domains and systems
This is concerned with extending the detection capabilities of Resilmesh to new OT domains – other than the three addressed directly within the project already or new OT protocols and device types and/or the interoperability of Resilmesh third party security controls and tools.
2. New Analytic Algorithms and Architectures
User and Entity Behaviour Analytics (UEBA) shifts the focus of detection from Indicator of Compromise (IoC) approaches to focus on higher level Indicators of Behaviour (IoB). UEBA can apply to both endpoint and network traffic behaviours. One approach here could be to extend the Resilmesh NDR functional component with network behaviour analytics such as those identified in the Network Traffic Analysis
category in the Mitre D3FEND taxonomy. UEBA analytics for IIoT/OT infrastructure in particular are of interest.
