ABOUT SECREDAS

SECREDAS stands for “Product Security for Cross Domain Reliable Dependable Automated Systems”. It is one of the first funded ECSEL Joint Undertaking projects which looks at security, safety and privacy across multiple application domains: Road, Rail and Health. The project consortium will build a reference architecture for Secure and Safe Automated systems compliant with the new GDPR Regulation. The project started in May 2018 and will continue until April 2021. It is co-funded through the EU ECSEL Programme and a number of national funds.

ACKNOWLEDGEMENT

SECREDAS has received funding within the Electronic Components and Systems for European Leadership Joint Undertaking (ECSEL JU) in collaboration with the European Union’s H2020 Framework Programme (H2020/2014- 2020) and National Authorities, under grant agreement n° 783119.

The SECREDAS project

The SECREDAS project has been set up to maximise the available expertise and generate application-specific solutions based on common technology elements. This ensures that solutions achieve their intended security and safety targets, work on common platforms and are also cost-effective. To implement the project, €51 million, of which €XX in form of ECSEL and national co-funding grants, will be spent.

The SECREDAS project will operate through 11 interlinked Work Packages (WPs); WP11 is a combined work package on project management , dissemination and exploitation of results.

Why this project?

At this time, one in four potential buyers/users in Europe of automated driving is reluctant to do so, mainly due to a lack of trust into its security. Hence industry and research communities need to work on an answer to ensure that these concerns are no longer roadblocks for further evolutions in the transport and personal healthcare sectors. By using new design and development methodologies to integrate cross-domain cybersecurity and safety related technologies, 70 European research and industrial partners take an important step toward increasing consumer trust in Europe’s transportation (vehicles, rail and aerospace) and medical industries.

The SECREDAS project is ground-breaking because:

  • • It is the first cross-domain large-scale platform project involving key knowledgeable players and influential partners in the domains of security, safety, privacy, automotive, health and rail.
  • • It will create a cross-domain reference architecture, design patterns and common security/privacy technology components which can be embedded in-domain specific solutions and which guarantee safety and performance requirements for 2020 vehicle requirements.
  • • It will focus on multi-sector demonstrations showing how to withstand hacking & attacking of the key components and systems.
  • • It will create a new multi-stakeholder dialogue based on sound human factor surveys that will create new insights towards future legislation and societal acceptance. This is done in close cooperation with key stakeholder groups and user groups.

What will SECREDAS achieve?

The SECREDAS project consortium is in the process of developing and validating multi-domain architecting methodologies, reference architectures, components and suitable integration and verification approaches for automated systems, as well as taking into account and influencing standardization, certification and qualification in different domains, combining high security and privacy protection while preserving functional-safety and operational performance. This will ensure that European OEMs remain competitive and maintain their world-leading position. The technologies developed in this project will provide common approaches as well as domain-specific solutions that adapt to changing environments and new challenges.

The SECREDAS project will be a success if we can achieve that:

  • • Reference Architecture & Design Patterns is used by 80% of the SECREDAS partners and by interested stakeholders in at least 5 other European Cooperation Projects.
  • • The common technology elements are used in at least 3 domain-specific components developed in SECREDAS and in at least 3 other European Cooperation Projects.
  • • We have successfully introduced on the market new domain-specific components.
  • • We have had a visible impact in several standardisation committees.
    • • We have an impact on future European roadmaps as developed by EU and specific stakeholder groups. • We can showcase a successful demonstration of preventing and solving hacking experiments based on the proposed scenarios using the new components as developed in SECREDAS.

Most of all: If SECREDAS can deliver a significant contribution to the development of trust and acceptance by consumers and users of automated systems!

How is SECREDAS structured?

SECREDAS comprises 11 work packages which build upon each other’s achievements.

In the first project year, the partners focussed on:


  • • Identifying Use Cases which describe particular – realistic – situations in which a user interacts with an automated system and its outside environment. These Use Cases cover things like: the way a vehicle is accessed for use or interacts with other vehicles whilst driving or at cross roads for example, to crossings between rail and road infrastructure, sudden illness of the user or necessary technical updates or upgrades of the system.
  • • Based on the Use Cases the partners identified realistic headline threat scenarios and sub-scenarios – coincidental as well as malicious – which could affect the security or safety of the automated system and thereby endanger the user if not prevented or counteracted on time.
  • • Finally, the Threat scenarios were analysed and led to the definition of hardware and software component requirements that address each scenario and thus safeguards the autonomous system’s security and the user’s safety.

We are currently in our second project year.


The partners are working hard on the development of the hardware and software components and on validation of the effectiveness of each demonstrator against the different threat scenarios. Much emphasis is on finding common approaches for similar-type threats across the three application domains. Cross-workpackage groups have been created to ensure a smooth knowledge exchange and transfer of results between partners and work packages with a view to the integration and testing of components and systems in three main demonstrator cycles in year three. Stand-alone components developed in the different work package tasks are also being integrated in order to test and validate interconnection and overall security. Year two also sees a quick ramping up of external dissemination and commercial exploitation activities by the different partners.

In the third project year:



A selected number of components will be included in major field tests whereby autonomously moving test-vehicles will run through the Use Cases and be placed in the different threat scenario environments. This involves the simulation of external attacks on the systems internal network and interaction with other networks, sudden occurrences on/near road and rail infrastructure etc. The field tests will take place on specially prepared (not open to the public) stretches of road, as well as via drone simulations. Dissemination of the technical results to a wide audience will be a major activity in Year 3.

Where are we now?



The picture on the right provides a summary overview of where we are in the project.
Green means: completed;
Yellowgreen means: in progress and close to completion.

By the end of July, the consortium partners have jointly been able to develop technologies that address the 10 identified major security, safety and privacy threats that end-users could face when using automated vehicles. To facilitate technology integration and joint demonstration capability, a special tool (CT-Track) was designed to ensure that partners are well aware of what others have developed and which supporting concepts and frameworks were used. The CT-track tool thus helps to link all technology development from the partners back to the core-aim of the SECREDAS project, namely: do they jointly solve the defined Threats in the defined Use Cases of D1.7? Although due to COVID19 some testing of stand-alone hardware or software still needs to be completed, the SECREDAS Steering Board feels confident that we are ready to start on the detailed integration/inter-connection work that will deliver the implementable solutions that OEMs and consumers are expecting from us. With the possible exception of 4 deliverables (for 2 of which we will request a deadline extension anyway for technical reasons), all activities and promised deliverables will be submitted before the Annual Review meeting. Considering the circumstances in the past six months, this has been a major achievement by all partners involved. On 23rd and 24th September, the Consortium will highlight the project’s achievements during the 2nd Annual Review meeting. In the meantime, the number of demonstrator recordings has increased significantly. These demonstrators will be shown during the 2nd Annual Review meeting, to highlight that the consortium is ready to move toward integration and “live on-road demonstrations” of security, safety & privacy solutions in automotive.

Year 1 of the project was completed in April 2019 with only minor delays in the production of technical deliverables. Use Cases and threat scenarios have been identified and solution requirements have been defined and validated. The annual review by external experts and the European Commission (June 2019) mainly showed minor improvement issues related to the transfer of results between work packages, and these are being addressed. The project started well into Year 2 of operation. Technical Progress is fast moving forward and requires more cross-work package interaction and collaboration to ensure that the results from initial demonstrators and prototypes from each work package can be used and integrated upward to systems that can be tested in the Year 3 field tests.
