Operational Technology for Reliable Interoperability

Purpose and goal

OTTO aims to solve the obstacle that industrial OT systems cannot be integrated securely, robustly and in the long term sustainably into modern digital infrastructures. This is done by developing and testing an application-oriented holistic approach for a resilient digital infrastructure in OT environments in order to The goal is demonstrated reference architectures and methods as well as guides for secure, resilient OT digitalisation and interoperable data flows.

Expected effects and result

The result is a practically applicable reference model, guidelines and tools that allow critical OT environments to maintain function and control even in the event of disruptions, while enabling secure data sharing and AI. Through close collaboration between research actors, technology suppliers and industrial need owner – and verification in real pilot environments – breadth, realism and rapid dissemination are ensured.

Planned approach and implementation

The work is carried out in six work packages that drive the development of the project forward in an iterative process rather than a waterfall model: AP1 Projektledning AP2 Mapping of OT/IT structure and responsibility. AP3 Säkra and semantically structured data flows AP4 AI close to the process-robust and secure AP5 Piloter and introduction into production AP6 Resultatspridning, evaluation and competence building. AP1 and AP6 run over the entire duration of the project.
