C4IIoT is aimed at building and demonstrating a novel and unified IIoT cybersecurity framework for malicious and anomalous behaviour anticipation, detection, mitigation, and end-user informing. The framework provides a holistic and disruptive security-enabling solution for minimizing attack surfaces in IIoT systems, by exploiting (i) emerging security software and hardware protection mechanisms; (ii) state of the art machine and deep learning and privacy-aware analytics; (iii) novel encrypted network flow analysis; (iv) secure-by-design IIoT device fabrication; and (v) blockchain technologies, to provide a viable scheme for enabling security and accountability, preserving privacy, enabling reliability and assuring trustworthiness within IIoT applications. The C4IIoT framework will be demonstrated and validated on two carefully selected use cases in real world environments, namely Enabling security IIoT in (i) Inbound Logistics and (ii) a Smart Factory.
