Countering HArms caused by Ransomware in the Internet Of Things (CHARIOT)

Chariot项目为期3年，旨在降低工业物联网(IIoT)网络部署中勒索软件攻击的风险和潜在不良后果，这些网络部署包括严格受限的无线、嵌入式和其他网络物理设备。通过拟议的研究，我们希望增加针对IIoT和网络物理系统的成功勒索软件攻击的难度，使它们成为不那么吸引攻击者的目标。因此，Chariot将设计、设计和原型创造性的尖端解决方案，用于检测、预防、恢复IIoT环境中的勒索软件攻击和对其进行免疫。研究成果和文物将提供给行业专业人员和物联网安全研究社区，以受益于我们的发现，并促进合作，以创建更安全的物联网和网络物理生态系统。构件将包括物联网勒索软件数据集、勒索软件概念验证原型以及用于检测、预防勒索软件攻击和从勒索软件攻击中恢复的工具包。这些工程成果将伴随着一套面向物联网开发人员和整个行业的建议和最佳实践。拟议的研究与值得信赖的互联网络物理系统(RITICS)研究所的宗旨和目标保持一致。Chariot还与安全硬件和嵌入式系统研究所(RISE)和经过验证的值得信赖的软件系统研究所(VeTSS)次要相关。

The aim of the 3-year CHARIOT project is to reduce the risk and potential adverse consequences of ransomware attacks in Industrial IoT (IIoT) network deployments comprising severely constrained wireless embedded and other cyber-physical devices. Through the proposed research, we want to increase the difficulty of mounting successful ransomware attacks against IIoT and cyber-physical systems, making them less attractive targets for perpetrators.To that effect, CHARIOT will devise, design, and prototype creative, cutting-edge solutions for the detection, prevention, recovery and immunisation of/from ransomware attacks in IIoT environments.Research outcomes and artifacts will be made available to industry professionals and the IoT security research community, to benefit from our findings and to foster collaboration towards creating more secure IoT and cyber-physical ecosystems. Artifacts will include IoT ransomware datasets, a ransomware proof of concept prototype, and a toolkit for the detection, prevention, and recovery of/from ransomware attacks. These engineering artifacts will be accompanied by a set of recommendations and best practices for IoT developers and industries in general.The proposed research is aligned with the aim and objectives of the Research Institute in Trustworthy Interconnected Cyber-physical Systems (RITICS). CHARIOT is secondarily also relevant to the Research Institute in Secure Hardware and Embedded Systems (RISE) and the Research Institute in Verified Trustworthy Software Systems (VeTSS).
