HIGH-TECH MADE IN AUSTRIA: LATEST DIGITALIZATION SOLUTIONS PRESENTED AT EUROPE'S LARGEST ITS SECURITY CONFERENCE

22.11.2022
AIT Austrian Institute of Technology presented the latest product innovations at the "it-sa" Exhibition in Nuremberg together with IT security specialists
 

From October 25 to 27, the joint exhibition stand (number 7-216) at Europe's largest exhibition for IT security had the motto "Sharing Innovation": The IT full-stack providers X-Net, Rimage Europe, LISEC as well as ThreatGet and Austria's largest applied research institution AIT Austrian Institute of Technology presented state-of-the-art, jointly developed product innovations.

 

Fake Shop Detector unmasks online fraudsters

Fake stores in the Internet are becoming more numerous and at the same time more difficult to detect. The Fake Shop Detector now offers support in detecting online fraudsters. The application, which was developed in Austria, examines the Internet browser to determine whether the online stores are legitimate or fraudulent. After all, the most effective way to protect consumers from this type of crime is prevention. The Fake Shop Detector is available as a plugin for Internet browsers and for mobile users also in the Watchlist Internet app (https://www.watchlist-internet.at/) and warns them in real time about fake stores. The tool was developed by AIT, the Austrian Institute for Applied Telecommunications (ÖIAT) and X-Net Services. Further information: www.fakeshop.at

 

ThreatGet – Automated threat analysis with Cyber Security Partner Program

This is a gamechanger: With the award-winning, artificial intelligence-based security tool ThreatGet, it is possible for the first time to analyze the entire system architecture of security-critical applications such as connected vehicles.  Automated analysis for potential system risks and attack paths can be easily performed from the very beginning of system development. This cyber security by design tool is a must-have for industries with security-critical infrastructure that are required by regulatory guidelines to have an appropriate cyber security management system in place. ThreatGet is available to consulting companies through a partner program for risk management consulting for highly secure IT and electronics systems. ThreatGet was developed by AIT together with Sparx Services CE, a business unit of Lieber.Group. The "ThreatGet" partner program was recently nominated for the Austrian State Award Consulting 2022 in the category "Management Consulting and IT". Further information: www.threatget.eu

 

SEC3 – Secure Cloud Connecting System

Secure IoT devices are the basis for the digitalization of Industry 4.0. A single successfully attacked IoT device can mutate into an attack vector for all devices connected to the cloud. The "Security by Isolation" (SBI) model from the Austrian and AIT-coordinated IoT4CPS research project represents such a solution and, with the Sec³ Secure Cloud Connecting System solution based on it, takes into account that no uncontrolled access to data is possible at any time. The system was further developed by X-Net Technologies and offers highest security for machines and IoT devices, fast initial installation, configurations only via the company's own Sec³ Cloud, coordination of remote maintenance of their components via company-owned Sec³ Hubs with video documentation and up-to-date encryption of the connections with low time expenditure. Sec³ combines the advantages of IoT Edge Box, Remote Service Box and Firewall, meets the highest security requirements and is developed and manufactured in Europe. In product development, Lisec Holding GmbH was the main source of input and the first user from the industry.

 

Rimage RX400 – High security USB based high speed disk copy system

The Rimage RX400 - a USB-based data carrier copying system - represents the further development of previous data storage and transfer using CD solutions and is used where cloud solutions also reach their limits: Secure and fast storage of sensitive and especially large amounts of data as used in the medical environment (medical data such as MRIs, radiology) and forensics (preservation of evidence). Depending on the software version and application, commercially available or dedicated, highly secure and write-protected USB sticks are used. In addition, security features such as WORM functionality for USB sticks (write once, read many) are available and prevent unwanted data from being written, modified or deleted on USB sticks. The compact Rimage RX400 was developed by X-Net and is equally easy to set up and operate for system integrators, healthcare providers, hospitals and users from other industries.

 

Absolutely interception-proof quantum communication technology

Based on the groundbreaking research work of the designated Nobel Prize winner Professor Anton Zeilinger, the AIT was able to develop concrete applications and technologies in the field of quantum communication together with Prof. Zeilinger at a very early stage. As a result, AIT is now considered a specialist in both terrestrial and satellite-based quantum cryptography. Against this background, the work of the quantum researchers focuses in particular on the miniaturization of the devices required for quantum cryptography (QKD) and on the establishment of a European quantum communication network within the framework of the EuroQCI initiative. At it-sa, AIT will present a compact quantum random number generator that generates random numbers at a speed of 2 Mbps. The randomness is based on quantum mechanical effects and therefore cannot be calculated. This method makes it possible to significantly strengthen even today's existing encryption algorithms. In addition, AIT will present a miniaturized QKD transmitter. This consists of a photonically integrated chip that carries all components such as lasers, modulators and attenuators. The special feature of the transmitter: It generates quantum cryptographically secured keys at a rate of 1kbit/s over a distance of 30km and thus enables absolutely interception-proof communication.
