PrOTectME: Protecting Medium Enterprises from Cyber Risks

ABSTRACT
B2B cyber-risk management services to Medium Enterprises active in the field of Operational Technologies.

Where: italy
Challenge
Nowadays the alignment between IT (Information Technology) and OT (Operational Technologies) creates socio-economic impacts and exposes organizations to interconnected security and safety risks. Organizations are unprepared for this new challenge against cybercrime.
Approach
PrOTectME contributes to the improvement of the cyber-posture of MEs (Medium Enterprises), with a positive impact on managers’ and workers’ safety in daily operations, increasing efficiency and coordination. Also, it reduces MEs’ feeling of insecurity in using new technologies and adopting increasing automation.
Digital Ecosystem
Solution
Digital Ecosystem
To unveil the cyber-posture of MEs, PrOTectME automates the Vulnerability Assessment of IT-OT infrastructures and the quantification of cascading effects of cyber-attacks and incidents. To maximize ROI, it recommends the optimal combination of cybersecurity solutions (including cyber insurance) that mitigate/transfer cyber risks. PrOTectME also supports the assessment of the compliance gap against specific cyber and risk management standards. Engineering has developed the application to support the decision-making process. PrOTectME project has received funding from the EIT Digital (Activity number: 21293)
