SMEs Success Stories: Digiotouch

As a key phase in the cyberwatching.eu strategy to engage with a large pan-European community of SMEs, the Consortium collects a number of cases where SMEs have successfully used cybersecurity solutions also through cyberwatching.eu in an SME to SME situation, where an SME provider has served an SME end user.

Digiotouch

Digiotouch is an Estonian SME, at the forefront of ICT innovations and services through its participation in EU Horizon 2020 projects and strong in-house R&D. The company is experienced with Standard Development on IoT, Web of Things, and Digital Transformation. Digiotouch's interoperable, secure, and sustainable Digital Transformation solution is powered by Cloud based Paradise IoT Platform. It is creating strong business impacts on European and International industries and consumers.

What results from the EU project (s) is your company using to further develop/build your own solutions/services?

We used Fed4FIRE+ Virtual IoT devices in order to test cyberattack resilience readiness of Digiotouch’s Paradise IoT Platform by launching three simulated and known cyberattacks:

1. DDoS
2. Insufficient authentication/authorization
3. Insecure Cloud web services.

How did you find out about these results (e.g. you participated in Open Calls, as a piloting partner, etc.)?

Digiotouch proposed its experiment to Fed4Fire+ Open Call.

What are the benefits for your company? Why did you decide to use the results from this EU project?

Fed4FIRE+ allowed DT to: upgrade DT’s main product – Paradise IoT Platform. DT’s Cloud-based Paradise IoT Platform has been upgraded with the developed Cybersecurity framework, while our cloud infrastructure will be upgraded soon to combat DDoS attacks, and the web services are secure by design.

From the Fed4FIRE+ we received support in terms of the federation of Testbeds available through a single account; grant to perform successful experiments; technical support.
