The need
The Cyberontology project developed by Phoenix was born in response to companies that want a product that helps them limit and deal with increasingly frequent cyber attacks.
We decided to create a single ontological vocabulary containing all the keywords present in the various areas of digital security, in order to form a foundation on which to build increasingly effective and immediate security systems.
The project
The project aims to build a computer vocabulary and make it available through software capable of intelligently retrieving security information. The idea is to increasingly delegate the management of protection measures to Artificial Intelligence, leveraging the most up-to-date semantic web techniques to reduce—or even eliminate—potential vulnerabilities.
Using semantics, which analyzes the meaning of words and their relationships, allows you to find the right documents much more precisely than traditional search methods, reducing ambiguity and misinterpretations.
This approach represents an innovation both methodologically and operationally compared to the systems adopted to date. The platform will be developed in OWL (Web Ontology Language) and will describe the key concepts of assets, threats, vulnerability, countermeasures, security goals, and defense strategy. The model, which connects assets, threats, and countermeasures, will follow the guidelines of the ISO/IEC 27001 standard.
The project is consistent with the supply chains identified in the Smart Specialization Strategy as it is relevant to the digital creative industries and specifically to the KIA 62 Programming, IT consultancy sector. Business sectors compatible with the public notice: g = video games and software - in this specific case software.
