3B4_0715_ EVALUATION OF CYBER SECURITY ASPECTS IN SMART TEXTILES APPLICATIONS

The SEKT project systematically investigates the cyber security of electronic communication systems and their integration within smart textile products. The main aims are the scientific investigation of cyber security of smart textile products, the transfer of existing security concepts as well as the development of secure innovative prototypes. Based on the knowledge gained, recommendations for further action will be derived and potential courses for the cross-sectoral knowledge transfer will be developed. An interdisciplinary team of scientists and companies from the fields of textile and clothing technology as well as information technology is facing up to this challenge.
