Imagine your company depends on dozens of suppliers, each with their own computer systems — and any one of them could be the weak link that lets hackers in. CYRENE built a security check-up system that scans your entire supply chain, finds the vulnerabilities, and tells you exactly where you're exposed. Think of it like a building inspector, but for the digital connections between you and every company you work with. It also helps you prove compliance with EU cybersecurity rules, so you're not scrambling when auditors come knocking.
Companies running complex supply chains have no simple way to check whether their partners' IT systems are secure. A single weak link — one supplier with poor cybersecurity — can expose the entire chain to data breaches, ransomware, and regulatory penalties. Current security audits are manual, slow, and don't cover the connections between companies.
CYRENE delivered a conformity assessment platform with both an early integrated prototype and a system final release. The platform includes dynamic risk and privacy assessment tools, threat modeling for supply chain networks, and certification-readiness evaluation aligned with ISO 27001, ISO 28001, and the EU Cybersecurity Act.
If you are a logistics company coordinating shipments across multiple carriers and warehouse operators — this project developed a conformity assessment platform that maps cyber risks across your entire partner network. It identifies which connections are vulnerable and helps you meet ISO 28001 and NIS compliance requirements without hiring a dedicated security audit team for each partner.
If you are a pharmaceutical manufacturer dealing with strict supply chain integrity requirements — this project developed a multi-level risk assessment tool that continuously monitors your supplier network for cybersecurity gaps. With 14 partners across 10 countries contributing to its development, it was designed for exactly the kind of complex, cross-border supply chains pharma companies manage daily.
If you are a utility operator whose critical infrastructure depends on digital systems from multiple vendors — this project developed a dynamic threat analysis and certification process that evaluates security at the device, system, and service level. It helps you detect advanced persistent threats across interconnected IT systems before they cascade into operational failures.
The project itself received EUR 4,992,750 in EU funding across 14 partners to develop the platform. Pricing for commercial deployment is not specified in the project data. Contact the coordinator MAGGIOLI SPA for licensing or service pricing details.
CYRENE was designed for multi-level supply chain assessment — from individual devices up to entire service networks. It was validated using real-life supply chain infrastructures, suggesting it can handle complex, multi-partner environments. Exact scale limits are not specified in the available data.
The coordinator is MAGGIOLI SPA, an Italian technology company. With 9 industry partners and 7 SMEs in the consortium, IP is likely shared among partners. Contact the coordinator directly to discuss licensing options for the conformity assessment platform.
Yes — CYRENE was explicitly built around the EU Cybersecurity Act and targets compliance with ISO 27001, ISO 28001, ISPS, and NIS directive requirements. The conformity assessment process was designed to generate the evidence needed for security certification schemes.
The project developed a dynamic, continuous assessment process rather than a one-time audit. Based on available project data, the system provides ongoing risk monitoring, but specific assessment timelines depend on supply chain complexity. The final system release is available as a prototype.
CYRENE was built to work with interconnected IT infrastructures and cyber systems across supply chains. The system evolved from an early integrated prototype to a final release, suggesting integration capabilities were a design priority. Specific API or platform compatibility details should be confirmed with the consortium.
The CYRENE consortium is heavily industry-driven with 9 out of 14 partners from the private sector (64% industry ratio), including 7 SMEs. This signals strong commercial intent — these are companies that need this technology for their own business, not just academic interest. The coordinator MAGGIOLI SPA is an established Italian IT company, which adds credibility for enterprise buyers. With partners across 10 countries (Belgium, Switzerland, Cyprus, Greece, Spain, France, Italy, Netherlands, Serbia, Sweden), the platform was built to handle the cross-border reality of European supply chains. The 3 universities and 2 research organizations provide the scientific backbone without dominating the project direction.
