Capabilities and Technologies

Following technical capabilities and utilization of following technologies and project approaches is envisaged:

• Post Quantum Cryptography, including Homomorphic Cryptography and Multi-Party Computation

• Generic networking and security protocols like TCP/IP, TLS, MQTT

• Smart grid networking and security protocols, smart grid architecture (see figure below)

• Semantic web technologies (ontologies, knowledge graphs, reasoners) for security ontology building and utilization and incorporation of crypto agility perspective; NLP/LLM toolchains are considered as possible for user experience enrichment and automatization of knowledge acquiring 

• Secure Software Supply Chain tools including Software Bills of Materials, software vulnerability and exploitability management technologies, DevSecOps pipelines

• Analytical methods, including ML-based, for architecture and software quality attributes assessments and security patterns and anti-patterns analysis 

• Threat modeling in line with industry best practices like MITRE ICS, STRIDE, MAL (Meta Attack Language)

• Smart grid related standards and frameworks among others (see figure below)

• Security standards like ISO 2700x, NIST RMF, Common Criteria

• Software quality and life cycle standards like SWEBOK

• System modeling (MBSE approach) and life cycle related standards like ISO 42010, ISO 15288
