DISCOVER THE NGI SARGASSOFUNDED PROJECTS

APSIDE is an ambitious collaborative project between Compellio and MIT that aims to pave the grounds for the international standardisation of asset profiling and interoperability across DLTs and between traditional IT systems and blockchains.

Average user considers decentralised systems abstract and complex due to the concepts involved. D3ICA wants to democratise the use of digital credentials which ultimately give the “power” back to individuals by focusing on diversity, inclusion, usability and interoperability from the get-go.

Interoperability is a must, but that requires a set of common specifications and standards that can be tested with a comprehensive automated conformance test platform.

EBSI-CAN explores the potential for EBSI to be deployed as a verifiable, cross-border credentialing framework in Canada, levering on use-cases for cross-issuance, cross-verification, cross-recognition to identify issues related to the governance, legal, technical, and business landscape in Canada.

EvORAN project will build the first opensource testing tools for time-fixed cybersecurity evaluation in O-RAN 5G/6G networks, cementing a baseline of security assurance common to all stakeholders: O-RAN providers, Network Operators, Regulators and Governments.

This project will enable holistic interoperability (tech, semantic, legal, governance) between different decentralized ID technologies & ecosystems with a focus on EU & Canada. The results will be open source libraries & contributions to alignment on standards, semantics, legal & governance topics.

Inter-domain routing vulnerabilities are often exploited by adversaries to compromise the security of critical Internet applications. To this end, Secure Backbone AS (SBAS) aims to
provide secure routing to BGP-Internet users by deploying a virtual Autonomous System (AS) over the SCION network.

The SNDS project will extend the NDN architecture to enable flexible, secure, and privacy preserving data sharing, by adding APIs that implement query-based content retrieval for clients and fine-grained content storage and update operations for content producers, turning NDN to a CDN underlay.

The DES project seeks to create a groundbreaking decentralized electronic signature system using blockchain technology. Integrated with Gov-Smart, it will enable citizens to generate secure digital signatures, verified and authenticated through a robust blockchain framework.

The project utilises SSI technologies and Zero-Knowledge Proofs to create process compliant Digital Product Passports in line with the EU Green Deal. It targets Europe’s growing carbon-reduced concrete market with the goal to collect and present verified, tamper-proof data along the production chain.

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.

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.

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.

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.

“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.

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.
