1 Executive Summary

This is the initial version of the Project’s D1.4 Deliverable addressing the Task 1.4 “CHARIOT Design Method and Supporting Tools” along with the work has been performed under this Task.

The deliverable starts with an extensive survey that has been performed by ASP in the Industrial IoT security threats in the sectors of for rail, airports and smart buildings which are relevant to the Project’s LLs. Among others, this survey includes information about the cybersecurity in industrial environments, the network architectures and latest trends in IoT systems technologies, the evolution of the IoT, an IoT compliance with different regulations, such as the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), and the Network and Information Systems (NIS). As has been identified, with the new technology trends, security (and privacy) issues, including cyber threats, have been came up in different industrial sectors (i.e. airports, railways and smart buildings). In addition, the increasing number of devices connected via the Internet creates new opportunities but also additional vulnerabilities to attacks due to the potential for more rapid spread of security incidents.The success of having a fully deployed secured IoT environment is strongly dependent on standardization and depth elaboration of various security protocols and in the different ways of developing and designing a privacy-friendly and secure IoT system, such as taking extra measures and precautions while performing sensitive operations.
