  <dt>Project description</dt>
 
  <dd>
 
<p>The ASSET project develops risk-based adaptive security methods and mechanisms for
 
Internet of Things (IoT) in eHealth, using game theory and context-awareness techniques
 
that increase security to an appropriate level. Emerging IoT technologies provide many
 
benefits to the improvement of eHealth. IoTs are, however, vulnerable to attacks since they are unattended, communicate wireless, and constrained by energy and computation capabilities
 
necessary for the implementation of complex security-supporting schemes. Most security models and mechanisms for the IoT&#8217;s problems are hard to change, reuse, and analyze. This results in
 
inflexible infrastructures, lost investments, damages resulting from
 
mechanisms not matching the threats, etc. The ASSET project builds risk-based
 
adaptive security methods and mechanisms that will adapt to the dynamic changing
 
conditions of IoTs.</p>
 
 
 
<p>ASSET&#8217;s case study will lead to the design of adaptive strategies for the dynamic
 
interplay between security and data transmission in a mobile patient monitoring system.
 
This will use information of link quality, data transmission rate, and processing
 
capabilities of sensor nodes and smart phones. The security adaptation will take into
 
account the various quality of service (QoS) metrics. This will allow us to verify the
 
necessary security and trust for the emerging IoTs in many e-Health applications in
 
general and in the case study patient monitoring in particular. This will constitute a key
 
innovator for future e-Health solutions in the Norwegian hospitals and health
 
services.</p>
 
 
 
  <dt>NR&#8217;s contribution</dt>
 
  <dd>
 
NR&#8217;s research in ICT has a basis in security, privacy and interactive, network-based technology. NR is contributing research capabilities in adaptive security, privacy, risk assessment, modeling and simulation. NR is supervising one PhD student and managing the coordination of the project.
 
  </dd>
 
<dt>GUC&#8217;s contribution</dt>
 
  <dd>
 
GUC as an academic institution offers BSc, MSc and PhD programmes in the topic area covered by the project. GUC is contributing to developing new research results that can be published through reputed and approved channels and integrated into courses and teaching programmes. GUC is supervising one PhD student and administrating the two PhD candidates’ participation in the PhD program.
 
  </dd>
 
<dt>OUH&#8217;s contribution</dt>
 
  <dd>
 
OUH performs more than 50 per cent of the total medical research in Norwegian medical centres and is contributing research in verifying the trust and security for emerging IoT in the case study patient monitoring in particular and many eHealth applications in general. OUH manages the case study (patient monitoring) by providing test-bed, co-supervises a PhD student, and contributes to the specification, analysis and evaluation of the adaptive security mechanisms developed within the project.
 
  </dd>
 
<dt>QMUL&#8217;s contribution</dt>
 
  <dd>
 
QMUL is one of London and the UK's leading research-focused higher education institutions, delivers world class degree programmes and research across a wide range of subjects in Humanities, Social Sciences and Laws, in Medicine and Dentistry and in Science and Engineering, and has a strong track record in the IoT. QMUL is contributing to the technical research aspects of the project, in particular in the elaboration of the interplay between adaptive security and data transmission using information of the link quality, data transmission rate, and processing capabilities of sensor nodes and smart phones. QMUL is lecturing about the project at QMUL in the courses on network security and IoT, Security, safety, trust and privacy for open distributed services, and will publish in reputed international security and privacy journals.
 
  </dd>
 
<dt>VTT&#8217;s contribution</dt>
 
  <dd>
 
VTT&#8217;s research in information security is based on strong experience from various topics of information security, both in research and R&D projects. The focus areas are security metrics, security assurance, including security testing, monitoring and analysis, risk and vulnerability analysis. VTT is contributing research in the technical research aspects of the project, in particular elaborating the design of a metrics development methodology for risk-driven adaptive security.

  </dd>
 
 
 
  <dt>Benefit for society</dt>
 
  <dd>
 
</p>Through development of adaptive and context-aware security for the next generation of
 
IoTs, the ASSET project will enable health organizations both in public and private sector
 
to design and implement context aware security and privacy protection and thus adaptive to
 
patients&#8217; needs. This will improve end user&#8217;s confidence in service providers.
 
The project builds risk-based adaptive security models that dynamically detect in
 
real-time unknown security and privacy threats, respond to them, and adapt to the
 
environment and changing degree of security and privacy breaches. This will allow health
 
organizations to securely and adaptively track objects and people (staff and patients),
 
identify and authenticate people, patient mobility, and automatic sensing and collection
 
of real time patient health data which will reduce the delay for treatment of critical
 
patients thereby enhancing traditional medical services.</p>
