Horizon Europe: Advanced real-time data analysis used for infrastructure resilience
Published on:
29 July 2024
Infrastructure poses specific challenges when identifying different risks, for example within the cyber domain. All organisations working on protecting sensitive data and critical infrastructures are eligible for this Horizon Europe subsidy, which will allow them to develop and demonstrate new security frameworks and technologies.
Practical information
- Application period: 27 June 2024 - 20 November 2024 17:00 CET
- Budget: €5 million
- Expected number of projects funded: 1
- Subsidy programme: Horizon Europe - Cluster 3 Civil security for society
Conditions
Specifically, projects should contribute to achieving one or more of the following goals:
- Improved risk identification in infrastructure networks and smart cities through real-time analysis (including big data) on secure platforms for public and private actors. All this is within legal and public frameworks.
- Tools and processes that help stakeholders identify, analyse, assess and monitor risks. This is done using various data sources such as audio, video and web content.
- Fast and continuous real-time identification, classification and tracking of hazards in infrastructure networks and supply chains.
- Interfaces and improved collaboration between detection and response systems, national/EU risk management systems and remote operations tools.
- Increased cyber resilience of industrial future networks and cloud data in specific infrastructure domains.
- Improved ability to map the risk factors in network infrastructure in real-time using 'earth observation' and location data.

Submission criteria
- You can only submit project proposals in a consortium. A consortium is a collaboration between several parties. The following criteria apply:
- at least one independent entity based in an EU member state;
- at least 2 other independent entities, each located in another EU member state or associated country. Please refer to the list of associated countries;
- active involvement of at least 3 infrastructure operators, including national civil protection authorities, from at least 3 different EU member states or associated countries.
- When using satellite-based Earth observation, positioning, navigation and/or timing data and services, beneficiaries should use Copernicus and/or Galileo/EGNOS, with the possibility of using other data and services in addition.
- Mobile network equipment suppliers rated as high-risk and their controlled entities may not participate in development projects.
