Unifying cybersecurity standards for the future
In the complex, shifting area of today’s cybersecurity challenges, European industries struggle with a lack of unified standards that makes them vulnerable to evolving threats. The absence of a cohesive approach hampers efforts to safeguard critical infrastructure, particularly in the realm of quantum computing and Industry 4.0. In response to this pressing issue, the EU-funded COBALT project put forward a visionary solution. Introducing the Common Certification Model (CCM), COBALT aims to create a robust cybersecurity framework, transcending industry boundaries and fortifying Europe’s digital landscape against emerging threats. This initiative works across different industries by integrating International Data Spaces and fostering trusted information exchange crucial for cross-industry cybersecurity certification. COBALT’s vision is of a decentralised solution that is adaptable and resilient.
