1 CIPS 2011 Awarded Grants Project number Applicant's name Ctry Title Description Grant HOME/2011/CIPS/AG/2012 NATIONAL INSTUTE COMMUNICATION TECHNOLOGIES (INTECO) ES SCADA laboratory and testbed as a service for critical infrastructure protection SCADA LAB proposal focuses on increasing critical infrastructure protection capacity in the transport, energy, ICT, chemical, financial, water, food, health, and space, research and nuclear sectors by developing a living SCADA LAB to test exercises and research SCADA technologies that prevent, detect and mitigate cyber attacks in EU member states. The aim of the project is to solve specific problems of current insufficient security measures taken to protect SCADA control systems with two main objetives: 1. Developing a laboratory for SCADA security testing utilized by target user groups in order to maintain the EU security environment of critical infrastructures. 2. Reuse existing assets, knowledge and equipment in an efficient manner with realistic benefits to achieve by the end and after the project ends ,34 HOME/2011/CIPS/AG/2079 FUNDACION TECNALIA RESEARCH & INNOVATION (TECNALIA) ES Probabilistic damage-mapping development tools for urban critical infrastructures against terrorist attacks The main objective of this proposal, MAPEX, is to develop a probabilistic mapping damage methodology for the assessment, analysis and optimization of the security level of urban critical infrastructure against external blast effects taking into account the interaction and influence of factors such as urban planning, explosive charge, building geometry and orientation, constructive and structural systems behaviour as well as human blast response. The ambitious MAPEX approach is based on threat assessment analysis, simplified engineering and advanced simulations models of physical blast phenomena as well as constructive and human response fundamentals. The developed methodologies will help to: 1) assessing threats to facilities; 2) use as a design tool; 3) performing vulnerability assessments; 4) investigation of bombing events; 5) base camp design; and 6) planning sites for new construction; 7) crisis management and evacuation protocols strategies ,20

2 HOME/2011/CIPS/AG/2082 BELGIAN INTEGRATED POLICE BE OPLON The project can be identified as follows: resolving a mass hostagetaking situation, involving the Union s Heads of state sitting on the Council. This project will be composed of three phases: analyzing and development, real-life testing and validation. It will involve all the partners affected by such major crisis situations (political, judicial, and administrative authorities, security services of the Council, law enforcement and intervention units). Foreign observers (Fr, Nl, Lux) will be part of the project ,32 HOME/2011/CIPS/AG/2087 GMV-SGI ES Critical ICT Simulation of Interdependency Model - II CRICTISIM-II is a continuation of an ongoing research project within GMV for creating a methodology and tool that will permit the calculation of Reliability, Availability and Maintainability values within an ICT infrastructure. The final goal of this effort is to provide mathematical means of calculating: - the resilience of an infrastructure, existing or designed, - the impact on availability of changes within the infrastructure or depending infrastructures - the identification of bottlenecks that are limiting the overall infrastructure availability ,01 HOME/2011/CIPS/AG/2096 RESEARCH ON ENERGY SYSTEM - RSE S.P.A. Security of Energy Systems This project proposal aims at contributing in the improvement of the security of Energy Smart Grids by creating a multi-layered knowledge base on the ICT Security matters along a three dimensional plan: technical plan, policy plan, international/interorganizational plan. The objective will be reached through the following activities running over two years ,96

3 HOME/2011/CIPS/AG/2098 D'APPOLONIA S.P.A. Cost Benefit Analysis of Security Measures Enforcement on a Metro Transportation System The project aims at developing a support tool for assessing the risks which the CI are subject to, and to evaluate the cost/effectiveness ratio deriving from the selection and implementation of a set of countermeasures. The backbone concepts of the tool will be the represented by: common and widely accepted Risk formulations based on the probability of occurrence of malicious threats and the impact that the threats could have on the selected assets; cost benefits analysis criteria based on the selection of countermeasures to protect a CI. The basic objectives of the tool are: definition of a common understanding for the CI security assessment process; the availability of a semi-quantitative and objective tool to support the assessment activities behind the development CI Operator Security Plan; the definition of guidelines and, possibly, benchmarks for security cost effectiveness analysis, allowing Member States and CI operators/managers to reach a potential agreement on how to balance CI security performance (main MS objective) and security costs (charging on CI operators/managers). The output of the project will consist of a prototype tool which will support the end-users by improving their protection capability and security awareness ,59 HOME/2011/CIPS/AG/2100 PROVINCIAL POLICE HEADQUARTERS IN SZCZECIN PL The Prevention and Management of Consequences of Terrorism in the LNG Terminal in Swinoujscie as an Element of Baltic Sea Region Security The aims of the project are: 1. Supporting coordinated and organizational operations aimed at increasing the efficiency of the protection of objects with characteristics of a critical infrastructure in the event of sudden and violent events such as terrorist attack. 2. Conducting common exercises based on realistic scenarios in order to enhance coordination and cooperation between services responsible for crisis management in case of a terrorist attack. 3. Identification of critical infrastructure facilities and developing common standards of safety in emergency measures of critical infrastructure and exchange of know-how and experiences on protection of people and objects of the marks of critical infrastructure ,21

4 HOME/2011/CIPS/AG/2102 NIER ENGINEERING Threat-Vulnerability Path Identification for Critical Compilation of a comprehensive allhazards catalogue for critical infrastructure The THREVI2 project has for main objective to create a database (DB) linking the relationships between all the hazards threatening CIs and the vulnerability of the CIs system or components. The query of the DB will allow the end-users (CIP Authorities and operators) to identify the relevant scenarios, according to their own priorities and criteria. To achieve this objective, a partnership led by NIER engineering () was built among Italian experts of hazards and vulnerability assessment (NIER, RGS s.r,l.) and of critical infrastructures and interdependencies characterization (Polytechnics of Milan, Faculty of Engineering of Rome) ,50 HOME/2011/CIPS/AG/2107 FOUNDATION FOR RESEARCH AND TECHNOLOGY HELLAS GR Rapid Emergency Deployment Mobile Communication Infrastructure REDComm's main goal is to address the major drawbacks of these common approaches: the slow response time, the high cost and the need of special equipment for the end user. The aim of the project is to build a mobile, autonomous, scalable network equipped with transceivers compatible with the common user devices, i.e. GSM phones, VHF radios, Tetra handhelds, WiFi enabled portables, etc. During an emergency situation there are two major communication problems to be addressed (i) the communication between the Emergency Response Teams (ERTs) and (ii) the communication between the general public and the ERTs ,41 HOME/2011/CIPS/AG/2108 REGIONE LOMBARDIA UPSIDEDOWN PROTECTSpatial MetaData Protection for the Underground Critical The aim of the project is the improvement of the information management standard for underground CIs by harmonizing the provisions of the INSPIRE Directive (Com(2004) 516 final) with urgency to protect geo-spatial metadata (GsD), to prevent and prepare to counter risks linked with terrorism based on an allhazards approach. Geospatial metadata is useful for identifying various underground features of EU-strategic assets as well as characterizing their important attributes. Although utility services produce and publicly disseminate such information for a wide range of beneficial purposes, the risk exists that some types of geospatial information could be exploited by terrorists ,57
