(Alliance News) - algoWatt Spa announced Wednesday that it has been awarded EUR255,000 in funding for digital energy solution provider & system integrator activities on the ResilMesh project, funded under the Horizon Europe program.

In the ambitious context of holistic protection of critical infrastructures, the ResilMesh project will develop a set of innovative tools for the realization of a Security Orchestration and Analytics Platform Architecture - SOAPA founded on the concept of cybesecurity awareness to improve the resilience of digital infrastructures through the achievement of several objectives.

Among the goals are to improve end-to-end data aggregation and interoperability of security controls in distributed digital infrastructures; provide computer security incident response teams with a better awareness of the interdependencies between services and resources in managed and monitored infrastructure networks; help CSIRTs develop cyber resilience capabilities; develop AI-based algorithms and tools for early and continuous detection and prediction of cyber attacks; and develop a situation assessment system to visualize and predict risk at the network level.

ResilMesh will define the proposed architecture by combining existing security controls and tools provided by the participating consortium with already available Open Source elements, developing algorithms and software tools to improve the detection and prediction of infrastructure attacks.

The project will validate the operation of the proposed innovations through three use cases in different infrastructure categories and five use cases to be defined through special open calls. The eight total planned pilots will ensure that the platform is evaluated on a wide range of critical infrastructure and in different application areas.

he ResilMesh project, with a total duration of 36 months and investment of about EUR6.7 million, is coordinated by the Technological University of The Shannon: Midlands Midwest.
