VIKING addresses
Objective ICT-SEC-2007.1.7: Critical Infrastructure Protection
of the work program, and in particular the focus of the ICT theme:
…addressing technology building blocks for creating, monitoring and managing secure,
resilient and always available information infrastructures that link critical infrastructures
so that they survive malicious attacks or accidental failures, guarantee integrity of data and
continuous provision of responsive and trustworthy services, and support dynamically
varying trust requirements.
The project is targeting item b of this focus:
b) Designing and developing secure and resilient networked and distributed information
and process control systems; systemic risk analysis and security configuration and
management of critical information infrastructures and dynamic assurance frameworks for
interconnecting them with critical infrastructures; availability of security forensics.
VIKING will develop methodologies applicable to a variety of critical infrastructures, but
the evaluation and testing will be focused on power distribution and transmission networks.
The VIKING consortium incorporates major European industry and power networks:
SCADA developers, SCADA operators, SME working on SCADA system integration and
financial service provider on IT risk assessment and insurance.
