Increasing the trustworthiness of embedded applications

Embedded systems, by their nature, often run unattended with opportunistic rather then scheduled software upgrades and, perhaps most significantly, have long operational lifetimes, and, hence, provide excellent targets for massive and remote exploitation. Thus, such systems mandate higher assurances of trust and cyber-security compared to those presently available in State-of-the-Art ICT systems. In this poster we present some techniques we utilize in the SHARCS project to ensure a higher level of security for embedded systems

Secure hardware-software architectures for robust computing systems

The Horizon 2020 SHARCS project is a framework for designing, building and demonstrating secure-by-design applications and services, that achieve end-to-end security for their users. In this paper we present the basic elements of SHARCS that will provide a powerful foundation for designing and developing trustworthy, secure-by-design applications and services for the Future Internet
