Imagine if your internet connection worked like a personal security guard that follows you everywhere. Instead of one big central lock for everyone, this system lets you decide exactly how much privacy and safety you need for different apps. It uses a smart assistant to translate your simple requests into complex technical settings automatically.
Current 4G/5G networks are too centralized, creating bottlenecks and security gaps as billions of devices connect. Existing security tools cannot handle the distributed nature of the cloud and the specific needs of high-stakes apps like the Metaverse.
A reference architecture for 6G trust and a cognitive coordinator using explainable AI. It includes five specific functions for safety, security, privacy, resilience, and reliability.
If you are a network operator dealing with the risk of moving services to the cloud edge — this project developed a system that treats trust as a measurable value. It allows you to offer customized security levels for different users without slowing down the network.
If you are a platform provider dealing with data exposure in immersive worlds — this project developed a way to manage privacy and reliability through a chatbot. This ensures users can trust their digital environment while maintaining high performance.
If you are a provider dealing with the need for extreme reliability in remote operations — this project developed a method to balance safety and resilience. It uses AI to detect anomalies and keep services running even under attack.
Based on available project data, no specific pricing or cost figures are provided as this is a research project.
The project uses a cloud-native architecture designed for scalability and interoperability across the edge-cloud continuum to support billions of devices.
Based on available project data, specific licensing terms are not listed, but the project involves 11 industry partners including Telefonica.
It enables a user-centric approach where trust requirements and data governance policies are specified by the user or tenant.
The project period runs from 2024-01-01 to 2026-12-31, suggesting a timeline for validation by the end of 2026.
The project is heavily industry-driven with 11 out of 14 partners coming from the commercial sector (79% industry ratio). Led by Telefonica, the group includes 7 SMEs, indicating a strong focus on creating a commercially viable product rather than purely academic research. The collaboration spans 6 countries, ensuring the results are applicable across different European regulatory environments.
