The SMARTIE project works on security,
privacy and trust for data exchange between
data
IoT devices and consumers of their
information. Results are demonstrated in
smart cities in Germany, Serbia and Spain.
Further partners are from Portugal and the UK.
Main Objectives
The vision of SMARTIE is to create a distributed framework
to share large volumes of heterogeneous information for the
use in smart-city applications, enabling end-to-end security
and trust in information delivery for decision-making
purposes following data owners privacy requirements.
A secure, trusted, but easy to use IoT system for a Smart
City will benefit the various stakeholders of a smart city:
The City Administration will have it easier to get
information from their citizens while protecting their privacy.
Furthermore, the services offered will be more reliable if
quality and trust of the underlying information is ensured.
Privacy and Trust are a key prerequisite
for citizens to participate in Smart City
activities. A Smart City can improve the A secure,

peak demands introduced by the
dynamics of the Smart City. Furthermore,
they can offer more tailored solutions for their customers
based on the status of the Smart City.
The Objectives of SMARTIE are
1. Understanding requirements for data and application
security and creating a policy-enabled framework supporting
data sharing across applications.
2. Developing new technologies that establish trust and
security in the perception layer and network layer.
3. Develop new technologies for trusted information creation
and secure storage for the information service layer.
4. Develop new technologies for information retrieval and
processing guided by access control policies in the
application layer.
5. Demonstrate the project results in real use cases
