Cyber-attacks get more sophisticated every day, thus affecting a large number of IoT-related infrastructures and raising security and privacy
concerns of consumers and businesses. Security management of IoT infrastructures encompassing full lifecycle of products and continuous
certification are fundamental tools to guarantee a high-level of security, as emphasized by the European Union Agency for Cybersecurity (ENISA)
Cybersecurity Act (CSA).
CERTIFY defines a methodological, technological, and organizational approach towards IoT security lifecycle management based on (i) security
by design support, (ii) continuous security assessment and monitoring (iii) timely detection, mitigation, and reconfiguration, (iv) secure IoT Over-The-Air (OTA) updating, and (v) continuous security information sharing.
To ensure the security compliance throughout the lifetime of the device, we propose the design and implementation of a cybersecurity lifecycle
management framework for IoT devices. The framework is intended to support the device security management by collecting and sharing relevant
security information both internally (via monitoring and self-assessment services) and externally, e.g., by interacting with device manufacturers,
threat databases, certification authorities, Information Sharing and Analysis Centres (ISACs), and more. The received information is meant to
support the local decision making with respect to the security, monitoring, updating and configuration of the device. Moreover, this information
sharing will enable a continuous risk assessment, gathering evidence that could agile future certifications.
CERTIFY's provides IoT stakeholders with mechanisms achieving high-level of security. CERTIFY will detect and respond to a wide spectrum of
attack, in a collaborative/decentralized fashion. CERTIFY will validate the architecture through cutting-edge use-cases and pave the way towards
innovative security in a broad spectrum of IoT environments.
