The CyberNEMO project
After the Covid19 pandemic, remote working highlighted the limitations of traditional VPNs with respect to remote access security. It is necessary to protect users, regardless of the connection point, on the one hand by considering Zero Trust on remote devices, the access network and the edge cloud, and on the other hand by enabling transparent IoT-Edge-Cloud Computing Continuum.
CyberNEMO represents a paradigm shift towards Continuum IoT-Edge-Cloud Computing, which it sees as distributed European critical infrastructure. To achieve mass adoption, CyberNEMO leverages existing by-design and by-innovation cybersecure systems and zero-trust architectures, and introduces new concepts, methods, tools, test frameworks and engagement campaigns to go beyond the current state of the art and create sustainable innovation.
CyberNEMO implements Zero Trust Network Access (ZTNA) as a cybersecurity model that requires strict identity verification for any device or microservice trying to access the resources of a private network, regardless of whether it is inside or outside the network perimeter.
ENG is WP1 leader about end-to-end CC risks assessment & incidents, mitigation strategies. ENG also will contribute in WP2 to developing a solution to ensure Zero Trust Network Access (ZTNA) on 5G network and in WP3, ENG will develop an event correlator establishing a partnership with ATLANTIS project.
