It targets Europe's growing carbon-reduced concrete market with the goal to collect and present verified, tamper-proof data along the production chain.

Next-Gen Safeguard: Detection and Recovery from Ransomware for Attacks to Data in Motion

The GUARDIAN project will develop a toolkit for detecting and recovering from ransomware attacks on data in motion. It will use advanced technologies like AI and application virtualization to counter evolving cyber threats. The toolkit will be tested in a dedicated testbed simulating these attacks.

Hybrid Post-Quantum Cryptography Self-Sovereign Identity Stack

HPQCSSI will develop a hybrid cryptographic quantum secure self-sovereign identity stack with a focus on bridging the EU and US identity gateways for the human- centric future. The project will improve existing open-source self-sovereign identity (SSI) tools by hardening them against quantum attacks through parallel use of classical and quantum-resistant cryptography.

Large Language Models as Defensive Honeypots

To research, develop, and apply LLMs to generate honeypots designed to deceive human attackers. They aim to increase variance in response types, improve technical detail, and precisely replicate different target systems. We expect the LLM's generated output to be more effective at luring or confounding attackers into perceiving honeypots as genuine production systems.

Rosetta Stone for API

Within EU Data Spaces, in American agriculture and through the Indian Stack, there is fast growing demand for interoperability based on the same global technical standards. In these 3 continents, there is explicit demand for a Rosetta Stone for APIs, as organizations need to make their existing APIs interoperable with their partners.

Sustainable & Interoperable Digital Identity

"SIDI is a collaborative platform involving over 15 organizations from EU, US and Canada. It aims to bridge national digital identity schemes by identifying champion use cases for cross-border interoperability and by mapping trust frameworks. By building cross-border interoperability for digital identity, the project seeks to accelerate operationalization of digital trust services.

Decentralized Digital Sovereign Identity and Voting System using Blockchain Technology

Challenging the traditional concept that democracy is limited to voting every four years, our Trustless Democracy project employs cutting-edge blockchain technology and zero-knowledge proofs to facilitate continuous, cost-free electoral participation.

AI-Driven Interview Analysis for Precision Hiring

VeriRecruit uses a human-centric approach to hiring excellence. Harnessing AI for precise analysis, validation, and improving the selection process, they unveil authentic talent, foster trust, and elevate recruitment experiences for a future-ready workforce. Redefining interviews, shaping careers.

Empower eDemocracy For Peace

In liberal democracies worldwide, an alarming trend of polarization is taking hold. To rehumanize and depolarize online civil discourse, we are developing Agora, an open-source polling and wikisurvey platform designed to facilitate large-scale conversations on important societal issues. Our solution is privacy-first, depolarizing, sybil resistant, as well as censorship resistant.

EVI US Pilot : Electric Vehicle Identity

EVI US is a privacy enhanced dapp to minimize dissemination of personal data to 3rdparties when transacting in Public Electric Vehicle Charging Stations. Securely storing vehicle certificates linked to users’ digital wallets will eliminate the need to sign up with different applications to access charging stations of different OEMs and CPOs. The dapp will be designed to limit what data can be extracted when an electric vehicle is plugged in the charging station to protect drivers’ privacy.

Facilitate Verifiable Credentials Presentation across borders

Define and develop a framework for wallet and credential interoperability between different decentralised identity (DID) ecosystems, allowing one ecosystem to process credentials from wallets from another ecosystem in a semantically meaningful way with some level of assurance.

Generative AI with Cybersecurity for Internet Applications development

GALICIA will test a novel approach to digital resilience verification by testing LLM generated code for correctness and security on a set of case studies, aiming to ensure compliance with user requirements and given standards. The ambition is to verify source code generated by Generative AI and analyze its limits, thus building trust in Generative AI. GALICIA aligns with the increasing demand for compliance in industrial automation and the need for fast and low cost software production.

A Global Market Maker for decentralized token exchanges

GMM is an interdisciplinary project through which computer scientists and economists join forces to design and build a truly global decentralized exchange (DEX) for cryptographic tokens. The key innovation in GMM is the use of all the reserves available blockchain-wide to compute tokens’ prices. By leveraging a larger pool of reserves, the GMM exhibits more stable prices than current DEXs, offering enhanced users’ protection against price manipulation attacks as well as reduced operational cost.

Internet Of Things automatic PAYment solution

IOTPAY is dedicated to developing a robust, interoperable decentralized payment ecosystem specifically designed for IoT devices. By harnessing blockchain technology, IOTPAY significantly reduces fraud and errors while boosting operational efficiency. This innovative platform ensures seamless, secure and automatic transactions between connected devices, paving the way for a smarter, more reliable digital economy.

POSition Information with Digital twin Offloading in trustworthy Next-generation Internet Applications

Within the NGI vision, POSIDONIA tackles a green and human-centric network design for heterogeneous scenarios supported by the Fog-Edge-Cloud continuum. In particular, POSIDONIA envisions a distributed network architecture to provide trustworthy and sustainable Location-Based Services (LBS) in Internet of Things (IoT) scenarios where threat mitigation is opportunistically offloaded between the local network and its core infrastructure. Therefore, POSIDONIA integrates DTs to ensure interoperabili

Empowering Commercial Drivers: Harnessing Next Generation Internet (NGI) to Enhance Safety, Trust, and Environment Sustainability

SafeMode collaborates with ICS to boost data privacy in fleet management using AI, aligned with NGI principles. This initiative sets new global standards for transparency and safety, leveraging ICS’s network to deploy human-centric technology.
