Develop an innovative cyber-threat intelligence gathering, detection, and mitigation

innovative cyber-threat platform

Our Test Cases
CyberTrust will be carrying our two main pilots

OTE is the largest telecommunications company in the Greek market, providing broadband and fixed line telephony services to Greek and international companies, consumers and public sector bodies. The OTE Group – comprising OTE S.A. and its subsidiaries – also offers mobile telephony services, Internet access, digital communications, leased line services and high-speed data communication.

OTE has the role of the end-user, who will integrate the resulting security platform on premise.

Communications Provider

Primary Pilot

The Hellenic Cyber-Crime Division with its HQs established in Athens, since 2004, when the unit was upgraded to a full department of the Hellenic Police, it has resolved over 6,000 cases of fraud, extortion and child abuse, while several resolved cases were only partially committed in Greece.

KEMEA and the Hellenic Cyber-Crime Division, using the data produced by the first pilot, will test the platform regarding its capabilities w.r.t. (e) forensic evidence collection.

Hellenic Police

Secondary Pilot
What are the platform aspects...
Zero-day vulnerabilities, threat sharing, network monitoring, blockchain, forensic evidence, device tampering, DDoS attacks, detection and mitigation, reputation systems, data protection and privacy.

Statistical & Signature based detection

Real time DDOS and RoQ attack detection Deep packet inspection Protocol analysis Anomaly detection

IoT Device Tampering Detection & Remediation

Autonomous health monitoring of IoT devices Tampering attempts Abnormal payload and traffic

Cyber-threat Intelligence Gathering & Sharing System

Novel approach: Deep and machine learning techniques Game-theoretic framework to provide recommendations for IoT service providers based on the information regarding vulnerabilities Game-theory and machine learning to create patterns and predict the evolution of malwares and botnets Intelligence gathering from: Clearnet Deep and dark web Intelligence sharing to: Organisations SOC teams Security experts LEAs CERTs

Cyber-Trust Blockchain

Provide trusted transaction processing and coordination between IoT devices Ensure security: Identity Data Communication Safeguarding critical files and software binaries Minimize the damage caused by tampered devices and malware as well as single points of failure Collection and storing of forensic evidence

IoT device Profiling

Develop a privacy-preserving IoT device (vulnerability) profiling framework, so that any communications with high risk devices are subject to more thorough analysis.

Self-adaptive Virtual 3D environment

The flat representation (on the screen) may provide synthetic information about the status of the IoT network that can be used for the monitoring phase. It will use BODY OCULUS (or similar viewers) and body movement(e.g. hand gestures) to navigate and inspect the network. Through the VR mode it will be possible to cover more network area per analyst and see more in less time; it will also allow to see panels of related information surrounding the operator in a…

Blockchain solutions and chain-of-custody

Sotirios Brotsis, Nicholas Kolokotronis, 5 July 2020 The technological evolution, which is derived from the development of the Internet of things (IoT) is accompanied by new forms of cyber-attacks that exploit the heterogeneity of IoT ecosystems and the existence of vulnerabilities in IoT devices. Thus, the detection of attacked IoT devices, as well as, the accumulation and maintenance of forensic evidences emerge as areas of immense priority [1, 4]. Most of the IoT devices are highly resource-constrained, while their computational…

Data visualisation for Zero-Day malware detection

Gueltoum Bendiab, Stavros Shiaeles, 29 Jun 2020. Malware is today one of the major threats faced by the digital world. In particular, the modern malware attacks have drawn special attention to the extensive damage that can be caused to private users, companies, public services, governments, and critical infrastructures, which provide vital functions that our societies depend upon. According to the AV-TEST institute, AV-TEST analysis systems recordover 350,000 new malicious programs every day, which amounts to more than 200 million pieces…

COVID-19: Amid a “pandemic” of cyber-attacks

A Cyber-Trust Brief by Olga Gkotsopoulou, VUB Even though companies have become more resilient over time, studies show that cyber-attacks have evolved and have become even more frequent [i]. This is more so true, especially in times of emergency and disaster at a national or global level. Since the beginning of the COVID-19 outbreak which led in an increase in the number of people staying at home and the turn into digital services, a significant upsurge has been noted in…
