Agile conformance assessment for cybersecurity CERTIFication enhanced by Artificial Intelligence

The Current Cyber Landscape

Addressing Cybersecurity Challenges with CERTIFAI

The rise in successful cyberattacks targeting hardware and software products has led to staggering global losses, estimated at EUR 5.5 trillion by 2021, according to the EU Cyber Resilience Act. These breaches are symptomatic of inadequate cybersecurity practices, manifested through widespread vulnerabilities and outdated approaches in identifying and mitigating evolving cyber threats. Maintaining continuous compliance with regulations, industry standards, and best practices further compounds this challenge.

Challenges of Certification

The Need for Continuous Security Assurance

To fortify digital technologies and mitigate the impact of cyber threats, it’s imperative to evaluate ICT products, services, and processes against security standards throughout their life cycle. However, the conventional certification process remains static and costly, failing to accommodate the dynamics of agile product delivery. Continuous updates and alterations in requirements often expose vulnerabilities, posing significant risks to both users and companies‘ reputations.

Revolutionizing Security Assurance

CERTIFAI's Innovative Approach

1

CERTIFAI's Response to Challenges

In response to these formidable challenges, the CERTIFAI project emerges as an innovative solution. It endeavors to create an open software framework employing AI-driven, cost-efficient continuous assessment and (re-)certification methods specifically tailored for ICT products, processes, and services. This proactive approach addresses the evolving cybersecurity landscape by ensuring robust compliance throughout the product life cycle.

Anchored in Cybersecurity Compliance

Anchored in the EU Cybersecurity Act, CERTIFAI is committed to leveraging recognized cybersecurity mandates, standards, and technical specifications. This strategic anchoring ensures that the software framework developed maintains sustained compliance throughout the life cycle of ICT products, processes, and services. By adhering to these established principles, CERTIFAI solidifies its role in fortifying cybersecurity measures within the digital landscape.

CERTIFAI Framework: Strengthening Cybersecurity Continuously

Enabling Continuous Assurance

The CERTIFAI framework incorporates crucial elements aligned with the ENISA Cybersecurity Threat Landscape Methodology:

evelopment and Continuous Updates of Threat Models:

Identifying potential threats through risk assessment.

Vulnerability Testing based on Threat Models:

Detecting vulnerabilities inherent in products.

Detection and Mitigation of Non-Compliance:

Ensuring continuous adherence to standards and regulatory requirements.

Empowering Cybersecurity in the EU

Towards a Secure Digital EU

CERTIFAI will undergo evaluation and demonstration across four distinct use cases, offering an open resource for the EU’s research and industry communities. By enabling lean re-certification processes, CERTIFAI empowers manufacturers to proactively prevent, detect, counter, and respond swiftly to cyber threats, fostering a more secure and trustworthy digital environment within the European Union.
