VTT to Coordinate Project on AI and Cybersecurity for Critical Services
VTT is coordinating the Finnish consortium in the international CELTIC-NEXT flagship project. The project focuses on developing AI and cybersecurity solutions for critical societal services.
The research center VTT is coordinating the Finnish consortium in the international CELTIC-NEXT flagship project. The initiative aims to develop solutions using artificial intelligence (AI), digital twins, and robust cybersecurity to support society's mission-critical services and infrastructure.
The project addresses the increasing dependency of essential societal functions on digital services and their supporting communication networks. Public authorities, rail transport, industry, and other critical services are becoming more interconnected and complex, necessitating network solutions that can remain operational during disruptions and withstand cyber threats.
The CELTIC-NEXT project seeks to enhance the resilience and operational continuity of critical services by integrating AI and digital twins. These technologies are expected to aid in system monitoring, predictive maintenance, and rapid recovery following potential disturbances.
The project involves a collaboration of several international and domestic entities. VTT's role includes leading the Finnish consortium and fostering cooperation throughout the project's duration. The outcomes are anticipated to significantly improve the security and reliability of essential societal services in the future.
