SCOTT – Secure Connected Trustable Things

Project summary

Creating trust in wireless solutions and increasing their social acceptance are major challenges to achieve the full potential of the Internet of Things (IoT). Therefore, SCOTT Secure COnnected Trustable Things, will provide comprehensive cost-efficient solutions of wireless, end-to-end secure, trustworthy connectivity and interoperability (Technology Readiness Level 6-7) to bridge the last mile to market implementation.

SCOTT will not just deal with 'things that are connected', but with 'trustable things that securely communicate'. SCOTT will focus on wireless sensor and actuator networks and communication in the areas of mobility, building & home / smart infrastructure as well as health. This addresses numerous European societal challenges such as smart, green and integrated transport, secure and inclusive societies as well as health and wellbeing. SCOTT will enable efficient, trustworthy connectivity and facilitate ubiquity of intelligent embedded systems and systems of systems, thus essentially contributing to burning issues in Automated Vehicles, Industry 4.0, etc.

The SCOTT Project aims... 

  • To extend the Internet-of-Things to provide cost-efficient solutions for wireless, end-to-end secure, trustworthy connectivity to provide market implementation.
  • To provide comprehensive cost-efficient solutions for wireless, end-to-end secure, trustworthy connectivity and interoperability (Technology Readiness Level 6-7) to bridge the last mile to market implementation. SCOTT will not just deal with 'things that are connected', but with 'trustable things that securely communicate'.
  • To enable efficient, trustworthy connectivity and facilitate ubiquity of intelligent embedded systems and systems of systems, thus essentially contributing to burning issues in Automated Vehicles, Industry 4.0, etc.

Project structure

SCOTT is structured into 4 subprojects (SP1 to SP4), each of which contains several work packages. SCOTT applies a clearly user-driven approach. Use cases from each industrial domain, as well as cross-domain use cases, form the basis for the sub-projects. The 18 Industrial Use Cases and demonstrators to be developed within SP2 are integrated with the Technical Building Blocks developed within the Technology Lines (SP3), which in turn is responsible for the development of the nearly 50 Technical Building Blocks defined within the SCOTT project.

Expected Impact and results

The strong partner consortium facilitates comprehensive vertical integration in different areas, covering the full value chain from silicon to end-users and operators. By providing reference implementations, SCOTT aims to establish an eco-system for trustable wireless solutions and services for both professional and private users by attracting 3rd parties and particularly SMEs. Ultimately, SCOTT will foster the European leadership for Smart and Connected Things (including Internet of Things) and will strengthen Europe´s independence for security enabling components and systems.
