Tech Brief: Cyber Resilience ActTHHINK BV MASTT2040Download the Tech Brief Here Cyber Resilience Act (PDF) The European Cyber Resilience Act is a legal framework that describes the cybersecurity requirements for hardware and software products with digital elements that are put on the market in the European Union. The Act has been introduced due to an increase in successful cyberattacks on hardware and software products. In 2021 it was estimated that the global annual cost of cybercrime was around €5.5 trillion. With the uptake of the act manufacturers are obliged to take security seriously throughout a product’s life cycle. Society and the economy are ever more reliant on digital solutions and so there is a need to protect against hacking of connected products and associated services. Experience shows that a cybersecurity incident in one product can affect an entire organisation or a whole supply chain. This can lead to severe disruption of economic and social activities and can even threaten the life of citizens. A problem is that vendors (hardware manufacturers, software developers, distributors and importers) often do not seriously consider cybersecurity, wanting to be first to market with a low-cost product. Adding cybersecurity requires qualified security engineers which has an impact on both product cost and in some cases performance, e.g. battery life. The response by companies to new vulnerabilities through a products’ lifecycle is also often inadequate making it difficult for consumers to assess the security of the products and services they are using. Current digital products are covered by several pieces of legislation, including EU legislation on specific products covering safety-related aspects and general legislation on product liability. However, this current legislation only covers some aspects related to cybersecurity of tangible digital products and associated embedded software. The General Product Safety Directive and the Machinery Directive do not prescribe specific cybersecurity requirements. In particular, the whole life cycle of a product or ancillary services and the need for regular software updates is not covered. The current legislation does not cover hardware that does not fall under the Radio Equipment Directive or the Medical Devices Regulation. As a result, the majority of hardware and software products are currently not covered by any cybersecurity legislation. In particular, the cybersecurity of non-embedded software is not covered by current legislation, which is a concern as it has become a main vector for cybersecurity attacks, causing significant societal and economic costs. Digital hardware and software products are a main avenue for successful cyberattacks and in a connected environment, a cybersecurity attack in one product can affect an entire organisation or a whole supply chain, often propagating across the borders of the internal market within a matter of minutes. Examples of this are:
The Cyber Resilience Act supersedes various acts and initiatives taken at Union and national levels which partially address identified cybersecurity related problems and risks. The aim is to provide increased legal certainty for both manufacturers and product users and avoid the unnecessary burden on companies to comply with a number of requirements in different countries for similar products. Products manufactured in one country are often used by organisations and consumers across the entire internal market. There are two major problems for users and the society:
Four specific objectives are set out:
Status Political agreement between the European Parliament and Council on the Cyber Resilience Act was reached on 1st December 2023 and on 12 March 2024 the European Parliament approved the Cyber Resilience Act with 517 votes in favour, 12 against and 78 abstentions. See "European Parliament legislative resolution of 12 March 2024 on the proposal for a regulation of the European Parliament and of the Council on horizontal cybersecurity requirements for products with digital elements and amending Regulation (EU) 2019/1020 (COM(2022)0454 – C9-0308/2022 – 2022/0272(COD))". (Download Here) In the next step it must be formally adopted by the Council. Upon entry into force, manufacturers, importers and distributors of hardware and software products will have 36 months to adapt to the new requirements. A more limited 21-month grace period will be put in place for reporting obligations of incidents and vulnerabilities. The Council’s common position is that there is a need for:
Examples of products with digital elements that come under the CRA
Thus, both products that can be connected physically via hardware interfaces and products that are connected logically, such as via network sockets, pipes, files, application programming interfaces or any other types of software interface are covered by the act. As cybersecurity threats can propagate through various products with digital elements before reaching a certain target, for example by chaining together multiple vulnerability exploits, manufacturers should also ensure the cybersecurity of those products that are only indirectly connected to other devices or networks. The CRA will thus have an impact on the entire software industry and addresses a broad range of products. There will be a big learning curve as companies transition to become compliant with the new legislation. A key aspect will be in proving conformity which requires assessment. In the majority of cases this can be done via self-assessment, however, Class I products will require adoption of a standard (which is currently being developed by CEN/CENELEC and ETSI) or via third party assessment and Class II products will require third party assessment. Tech Brief: AI ActTHHINK BV MASTT2040Download the Tech Brief Here AI Act (PDF) The new EU AI Act introduces a risk-based classification scheme for AI applications considering the level of risk posed by the AI application to individuals or society as a whole. The classification ranges from minimal risk to applications which are banned entirely. The term AI covers a wide variety of data analysis techniques which are already being exploited by companies and includes things like deep learning and machine learning. The OECD definition of an Artificial Intelligence system’ (AI system) is “a machine-based system that is designed to operate with varying levels of autonomy and that can, for explicit or implicit objectives, generate outputs such as predictions, recommendations, or decisions that influence physical or virtual environments”. The Act applies to organisations within Europe but also to organisations outside of Europe. There are, however, a number of exemptions with respect to the use of AI for national security, military and defence. There are also exemptions in the use of AI for research. Different types of AI are defined according to risk:
Prohibited AI The use of AI is prohibited in a number of areas:
Compliance Requirements for High-Risk AI Key to the act will be that companies must demonstrate that the design, implementation and post-market entry phases are compliant with a range of activities. These include:
Penalties and Enforcement The fines for violations of the AI Act have been set as a percentage of the offending company’s global annual turnover in the previous financial year or a predetermined amount, whichever is higher. It should be noted, however, that the provisional agreement provides for more proportionate caps on administrative fines for SMEs and start-ups in case of infringements.
Tech Brief: Data Governance ActTHHINK BV MASTT2040Download the Tech Brief Here Data Governance Act (PDF) The Data Governance Act (Data Governance Act) aims to provide a framework to enhance trust in voluntary data sharing for the benefit of businesses and citizens. This will make it easier to share data in a trusted and secure way. The goal is to enable data sharing to create new products and services, make production more efficient, and provide tools to address societal challenges such as healthcare. Already the Open Data Directive (Open Data Directive) regulates the re-use of publicly/available information held by the public sector. However, the public sector also holds vast amounts of protected data (e.g. personal data and commercially confidential data) that cannot be re-used as open data but could be re-used under specific EU or national legislation. A wealth of knowledge can be extracted from this data and the aim of the Data Governance Act is thus to provide rules and safeguards to facilitate such re-use whenever it is possible under other legislation. There are, however, a number of obstacles to data sharing, a key one being a lack of trust. The act regulates the re-use of publicly/held, protected data, by boosting data sharing through the regulation of novel data intermediaries and by encouraging the sharing of data for altruistic purposes. The act covers both personal and non-personal data. Within this personal data is covered under the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). The Data Governance Act provides similar safeguards for access requests from third countries in the context of non-personal data. These safeguards apply to public sector data, data intermediation services and data altruism constellations. A re-user from a third country will need to ensure the same level of protection as the EU level of protection as well as accept the respective EU jurisdiction. Model contract clauses will be available for public sector bodies and re-users for scenarios where public sector data is transferred to third countries. The Commission may also adopt additional adequacy decisions for the transfer of public protected data for re-use if an access request for non-personal data comes from a third country. Under the act Member States will need to be technically equipped to ensure that the privacy and confidentiality of data is fully respected in re-use situations. This can be provided by a range of tools, such as anonymisation, pseudonymisation or accessing data in secure processing environments (e.g. data rooms) supervised by the public sector, and contractual means such as confidentiality agreements between the public sector body and the re-user. The DGA limits the use of exclusive data re-use agreements to single companies to maximise the reuse of data for public interest. It also limits the charging of fees to data to “reasonable fees” which are aimed to cover the costs incurred in sharing. Public sector bodies will be encouraged to incentivise the re-use of data (with reduced fees or free access) for scientific research and other non-commercial purposes as well as to provide the data to SMEs and start-ups. To make the process quicker a public sector body will need to make a decision on sharing the data within 2 months. If a public sector body is unable to grant access to certain data for re-use, it should assist the potential re-user in seeking the individual’s or data holder’s consent to re-use their data. Confidential information (e.g. trade secrets) can be disclosed for re-use only with permission. Competent bodies will be chosen by Member States to support public sector bodies to grant access to data by providing a secure processing environment and by advising on how to best structure and store data for easy access. Potential re-users also need to know what data is available and so Member States will also set up a single information point. The Commission has created a European Register for Protected Data (ERPD) to provide a searchable register of the information compiled by national single information:(European Register for Protected Data (ERPD)) Data Intermediation Services The fear of many companies is that they will lose competitive advantage by sharing data, and even worse there is a risk of misuse if the data. The DGA defines a set of rules for providers of data intermediation services (data intermediaries and data marketplaces) to ensure that they will function as trustworthy organisers of data sharing or pooling within the common European data spaces. A model based on the neutrality and transparency of data intermediaries is used to engender trust. Key to the act is that individuals and companies maintain control of their data. In practice, data intermediaries will act as neutral third parties that connect individuals and companies with data users. Intermediaries can charge for facilitating data sharing between the parties, however, they will not be allowed to directly use the data for financial profit either by developing their own product or by selling the data to another company. They will need to comply with strict requirements to ensure neutrality and avoid conflicts of interest via strict separation legally of the data intermediation service and other services they provide. Data intermediaries will be required to notify the competent authority of their intention to provide such services. The competent authority will ensure that the notification procedure is non-discriminatory and does not distort competition and will confirm that the data intermediation services provider has submitted the notification containing all required information. This will result in the label ‘data intermediation services provider recognised in the Union’ being given to the company and its registration in a central register of recognised data intermediaries. An example of this is Deutsche Telekom which provides a Data Intelligence Hub marketplace which allows companies to securely manage, provide and monetize things like production data, in order to optimise processes or value chains. Telekom takes the role of a neutral trustee and guarantees data sovereignty through decentralised data management. Currently more than 1,000 users from over 100 different companies are active on the platform. Data Altruism Individuals and companies are being encouraged to adopt data altruism by making their data voluntarily available with consent or permission to be used in the public interest. The aim is to use this free data to advance research and develop better products and services, in a variety of areas such as health, environment and mobility. Data altruism requires trusted data sharing tools and the Data Governance Act aims to enable these based on EU values and principles. The intention is to create pools of data which can be used for data analytics and machine learning. A common logo will be used to badge companies that are recognised as data altruism organisations and these will be listed in an EU-level public register. These will need to be not-for-profit and meet transparency and safety requirements to protect the rights and interests of citizens and companies who share their data. In addition, they must comply with a rulebook which is being developed by the Commission in cooperation with data altruism organisations and other stakeholders. These rules will lay down information requirements, technical and security requirements, communication roadmaps and recommendations on interoperability standards. A common consent form will be used to allow collection of data in a uniform format covering different sectors. European Data Innovation Board To promote the aims of the DGA, the Commission has also established the European Data Innovation Group (European Data Innovation Group) to facilitate the sharing of best practices with respect to data intermediation, data altruism and the use of public data, as well as on the prioritisation of cross-sectoral interoperability standards. The EDIB includes representatives from the following entities:
Tech Brief: General Data Protection RegulationTHHINK BV MASTT2040Download the Tech Brief Here GDPR (PDF) From 25th May 2018 all companies that collect data on citizens across the 28 EU member states had to comply with strict new rules protecting customer data with the introduction of the General Data Protection Regulation. The regulation dictates that by law it is not be allowed to collect data on:
The GDPR requirements forces companies to change the way they process, store, and protect customers' personal data. For example, companies are allowed to store and process personal data only when the individual consents and for "no longer than is necessary for the purposes for which the personal data are processed." Personal data must also be portable from one company to another, and companies must erase personal data upon request enshrining the concept of the "right to be forgotten". Any company that stores or processes personal information about EU citizens within EU states must comply with the GDPR if they have:
The GDPR defines three key company roles that are responsible for ensuring compliance: data controller, data processor and the data protection officer (DPO). The data controller defines how personal data is processed and the purposes for which it is processed. The controller is also responsible for making sure that outside contractors comply. Data processors may be the internal staff that maintain and process personal data records or any outsourcing firm that performs all or part of these activities. Notably it is the data processors who are liable for breaches or non-compliance. A DPO needs to be designated to oversee data security strategy and GDPR compliance. Companies are required to have a DPO if they process or store large amounts of EU citizen data, process or store special personal data, regularly monitor data subjects, or are a public authority. If a company is non-compliant the GDPR allows for penalties of up to €20 million or 4 percent of global annual turnover, whichever is higher. The difference between a major breach that could cause damage and a minor breach needs to be assessed. Here GDPR places a requirement on companies to perform impact assessments to mitigate the risk of breaches by identifying vulnerabilities and how to address them. Consumers benefit from getting a lot more information about data breaches. A key requirement brought in by GDPR is that companies must report data breaches to supervisory authorities and individuals affected by a breach within 72 hours of when the breach is detected. Customers know a lot more about how safe their data is and also which companies they can trust with their data. |

Manufacturing as a ServiceMASTT2040 [ www.mastt2040.eu ] is a Coordination and Support Action, financed by the European Commission under HORIZON-CL4-2023-TWIN-TRANSITION-01-08 (GA MASTT2040 - 101138342 - GAP-101138342). Advancement in Manufacturing as a Service (MaaS) has been driven by a number of key enabling technologies and related developments such as connectivity (next generation IIoT and connectivity platforms), digitization (next generation automated and autonomous office processes and enterprise data), access to vast amounts of data (industrial data spaces), AI and Industry 4.0 (smart, hyperconnected & autonomous production systems and value networks). This is expected to result in novel service models transforming manufacturing. Example of this are:
At the same time driven by the Circular Economy Action Plan (CEAP) standards, regulations and key actions aim to support the transition to a more sustainable production and circular economy (CE). As one of the results, Digital Product Passports will be mandatory across many industries in the EU in coming years and will have a major impact in the future on value chains and sustainability. Digital Product Passports will provide information about a product's origin, materials, production processes, and end-of-life options. DPPs will play a key role in supporting the transition to a circular economy by promoting transparency, traceability, and sustainability in product production5. DPPs also enable sharing the information required to provide for R-circle services in a CE-ecosystem (supported by Data Spaces). The two worlds do not yet meet today, the companies active in the CE are different from those in MaaS as MaaS at the moment is focussing on speed, efficiency and scale whereas CE is focussing on sustainability and decarbonisation. The key questions are:
The project brings together 6 leading actors with a keen interest in furthering the area of MaaS and the move towards more sustainable production and circular economy

Smart4Europe2Smart4Europe 2 [ www.smart4europe.eu ] is a Coordination and Support Action, co-financed by the European Commission, DT-ICT-01-2019 Smart Anything Everywhere Initiative (GA No.: 872111) which builds upon the previous Smart4Europe project that successfully brought together a critical mass of Innovation Actions (IAs) with a long track record of promoting the digital transformation of European Industry in the areas of Smart Systems Integration, Organic and Large Area Electronics, Internet of Things Advanced Computing and Cyber Physical Systems. Today, innovation is to an increasing extent based on digitisation leading to new functionalities, products and services, but the speed of change is so quick that SMEs and mid-caps are struggling to keep pace. In order to address this, Digital Innovation Hubs (DIH) have been set up to help companies with their digital transformation. This has been done at European, national and regional levels; however, the resulting community of DIHs is fragmented. The aim of the Smart4Europe2 is thus to bring together and link the DIHs as well as projects aligned to SAE (DEI CSAs, ECSEL, I4MS, etc.) and make DIH services more widely available to SMEs and mid-caps. Smart4Europe2 will:
PROJECT PARTNERS The project brings together 7 Partners from 5 European countries:
Smart4Europe"Digitisation" enables enhanced or new functionalities in most products and services. A key question is "How to optimise the transformation of this potential?" SMEs from non-high technology sectors in particular need an easy access to digitisation technologies. The new project "Smart4Europe" will help by pooling different offers in a one-stop-shop, bringing together the community, helping it to grow organically and catalysing digitisation throughout Europe. A central aim of the European Commission with respect to digitization is to "ensure that any industry in Europe, big or small, wherever situated and in any sector can fully benefit from digital innovations to upgrade its products, improve its processes and adapt its business models to the digital change". To achieve this, the initiative "SmartAnythingEverywhere" (SAE Initiative) was coined as an umbrella for a growing number of projects, focusing on different technology domains and positions in the innovation cycle to demonstrate best practice in technology transfer to European SMEs. Catalysing Digitisation Smart 4 Europe [ www.smart4europe.eu ] has the aim to:
In order to achieve this, Smart4Europe will expand the existing website of the Initiative [www.smartanythingeverywhere.eu] to create an Innovation Portal as a central contact point for digitization in Europe: providing a service centre; facilitate brokerage; coordinate communication and dissemination activities; help in sharing best practices and experiences; create a Technology Radar to identify technologies SAE can benefit from; and last but not least, establish links to regional/national initiatives to leverage investments and stimulate growth. Smart4Europe started in September 2017 and has a duration of 2 years and almost 1M€ funding from the European Union's Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme (Grant Agreement No 761448). The project is driven by a strong consortium of partners that have already demonstrated their commitment and engaged for several years in shaping the SAE Initiative:

Smart4Europe Technology RadarA key activity of THHINK BV within Smart4Europe2 is development and maintenance of a Technology Radar. Below is clickable version of the radar. If you have comments or suggested technology additions to the radar please contact us here. As part of Smart4Europe, THHINK is creating a Technology Radar (see above) to classify Smart Technologies, Smart Services, SAE Tools and SAE Platforms according to their level of market readiness. Readiness is classified in terms of:
"Red: Long Term - Hold off for now" to represent technologies that are not yet proven and not worth investing in yet
"Amber: Medium Term - Assess" a technology that is promising and worth exploring with the goal of understanding how it may have an impact "Green: Short Term - Adopt" for a technology that industry should be adopting. As part of this initiative the project is collecting information on new technologies and would like to gather input from the community on what are the interesting and up-and-coming technologies that should be considered on the radar. Here we would like to solicit input on the technologies already identified via the attached questionnaire with respect to maturity and potential interest to industry, but also other new and exciting technologies. Additionally, we are seeking ideas for non-traditional uses of smart technologies, e.g. self-tying shoes for the elderly, UAVs for shark alerting, etc. If you have an unusual application that you are either working on, or think would be interesting for the future, we would very much like to hear from you!

Precision Agriculture & Digital FarmingSmart Agriculture - Why it is important for the futureTHHINK By 2050 it will be necessary to feed a world population of 9 billion people. If current production levels are maintained, this level will result in a food shortage of 70%. Addressing this, similar to the manufacturing sector, the farming sector is currently undergoing a 4th Industrial Revolution. The first revolution in the industry was Mechanisation with the introduction of tractors, the second was the Green Revolution (which introduced the use of fertilisers), the third was Precision Agriculture (which exploited GPS systems to provide centimeter-accurate ploughing, sowing, harvesting, etc) and the current 4th Revolution is Digital Farming. In this current revolution, whole Farm Management Systems are being introduced which exploit real-time data and wireless connectivity to provide added value services, automation capabilities and improved processes that make the food value chain more efficient. Examples of this are more efficient and easier to maintain machinery, and better information to optimise seed use and sowing based on data from the farm. Smart agriculture is heavily exploiting advanced technologies such as Big Data, GPS, IoT and connected sensor devices to collect data from the field and analyse it so that the farmer can make accurate decisions in order to grow high quality crops. The field data is collected with the help of sensors, cameras, micro controllers, and actuators. Sensors and cameras can be used to provide information to the operator for water level, fertilizers as well as light required for growing the best quality food. The collected data is transferred via the Internet to the operator or the farmer for decision making. According to expert predictions, the Smart Agriculture market is expected to grow from USD 5.18 Billion in 2016 to USD 11.23 Billion by 2022, at a CAGR of 13.27% between 2017 and 2022 (Markets and Markets). The main share of this market is expected to come for hardware for sensors, network management, agriculture asset management, supervisory control and data acquisition, logistic and supply chain management. The whole concept of precision agriculture is based on accurate crop and soil observation, some of which are being achieved via automated NDVI image capture/processing for identifying crop and soil conditions using UAVs or drone technology. Farmers use these insights to maintain their crops and make better informed decisions that ultimately yield higher quality and greater quantity of crops. Smart water management can also be used to reduce human labour, minimize weather risks, and increase off-season production by saving water, reducing the use of chemicals and saving energy. Another key sector being revolutionised by smart technologies is indoor farming and horticulture. Increasing automation of commercial greenhouses and growing implementation of the Controlled Environment Agriculture (CEA) concept in greenhouses, is allowing a higher yield from maintenance of optimum growing conditions. Cultivators have shifted from conventional lighting systems to LED grow lights. Although LED grow lights are high in cost, they are an ideal option for indoor farming owing to their long-term benefits in terms of energy efficiency. In the smart agricultural sector, livestock monitoring is the fastest growing segment allowing monitoring of livestock performance, health and welfare using RFID, biometrics, and GPS to automatically obtain information on animals in real-time. Farm machinery is also becoming more automated and agricultural robots are being used to automate farming processes such as soil maintenance, weeding, fruit picking, harvesting, planting, ploughing, and irrigation. Here M2M communications, an integral part of IoT, allows coordination of multiple devices, appliances, and machines connected to the internet through multiple networks. Importance for the Netherlands The Netherlands is the world's second largest exporter of agricultural products after the USA. Together with the USA and Spain, the Netherlands is one of the world's three leading producers of vegetables and fruit and supplies a quarter of the vegetables that are exported from Europe. The Dutch agricultural sector is diverse; it covers a wide range of livestock and plant-cultivation sectors that include arable and dairy farming, cultivation under glass, tree-growing and pig farming. The agri-business is one of the driving forces behind the Dutch economy and with a large population in a small, low-lying delta region where land is at a premium, farms in the Netherlands are some of the most intensive, sustainable, and efficient in the world. It is no surprise that Wageningen University is the number 1 Agricultural University in the world and five of the top 26 global agri-food companies have R&D facilities in the Netherlands. Key Projects IoF2020 [ www.iof2020.eu ] is supported by the European Commission with a budget of 30M Euros. The aim of IoF2020 is to build a lasting ecosystem that fosters the large-scale uptake of IoT technologies across a diverse sector considering farm-to-fork. 75 key stakeholders along the food value chain are involved in IoF2020 together with technology service providers, software companies and academic research institutions. Nineteen use-cases organised around five sectors (arable, dairy, fruits, meat and vegetables) will develop, test and demonstrate IoT technologies in operational farm environments all over Europe. |
