Objectives
Technological objectives
-
Threat Landscape for 6G Networks
Investigate and identify the threat landscape for 6G networks, focusing on the new threats related to 6G innovations; identify the shortcomings and especially privacy concerns of existing security mechanisms.
-
AI-driven security analytics
Enable privacy-preserving explainable and decentralised robust AI-driven security analytics for 6G networks.
-
Privacy Intents
Introduce user “privacy intent” in 6G slicing and orchestration.
-
Distributed attestation, identification and CTI-sharing
Enable privacy-preserving distributed attestation, identification and CTI-sharing within the 6G ecosystem, with specific focus on dynamic zero-trust infrastructures.
-
Deliver PRIVATEER’s framework
Integrate the PRIVATEER security enablers into a coherent framework and verify it in a B5G test network, also assessing their threats and vulnerabilities.
Key Impacts
-
Adoption of privacy as a key requirement for 6G security frameworks
by security- related research initiatives and SDOs by promoting concrete and sound technical solutions for meeting
such a requirement -
More transparent and privacy-preserving security auditing processes
through the PRIVATEER solution for distributed identities and verifiable credentials
-
Lower market barrier for new entrants to 6G ecosystem (SMEs and startups)
by
granting them access to the PRIVATEER open-source, software-only security solutions -
Reduction in onboarding time for new 6G edge infrastructures from days to minutes
thanks to the distributed identity and attestation mechanisms
-
Contribution towards a more open, pluralistic and zero-trust 6G ecosystem
by making
trust mechanisms more efficient and privacy-friendly
