Cybersecurity/Network and Information security

This fellowship is meant to increase confidence in cybersecurity through the convergence of international SDOs and the alignment behind a common international standard which relates both to the market and society.

I estimate that digital identities, and the way to ensure appropriate levels of assurance and handling of corresponding credentials, are key for the digital society.

In addressing secure AI with the broad interpretation of security to include safety and societal aspects as above TC SAI will engage with EU and other regulatory bodies to ensure that the output supports relevant global, regional, and national requirements.

This fellowship aims to contribute to the O-RAN Alliance Security Tests specification, the main standard, bringing a security assurance methodology for all O-RAN equipment.

The proposal at hand is expected to directly contribute to increasing the real-world take up of advanced privacy-enhancing technologies, thereby advancing the technical state of the art in this domain and helping to maintain the privacy and data sovereignty of European SMEs and ultimately also citizens.

Clarifying for the EU SMEs and European societies the direction they would have to take to evolve and change their product, ensuring their compliance with the regulatory obligations activated in the RED Delegated Act.

The main challenge is that some industry players dominate national bodies and want to promote their own product by making contributions to the industry standard.

I am to positively influence the European market and its infrastructures by benefiting from international contributions (e.g. ISO/IEC) in the controlling of civil security and the protecting of e-identity and e-privacy.
