IT security of electronic communication systems in smart textile products

Abstract

The SEKT research project, which is supported by the Federal Ministry of Education and Research, systematically investigates the integration and IT security of electronic communication systems in smart textile products. The main objectives are the scientific investigation of the IT security of Smart Textiles, the transfer of existing security concepts and the development of secure, innovative prototypes. The knowledge gained will be used to derive guidelines for the further procedure and courses for the textile and clothing industry will be developed, which will ensure an intensive multidisciplinary and cross-sectoral transfer of know-how. This challenge is to be met by an interdisciplinary team of scientists and companies from the textile and clothing industry and information technology. The actual status will be presented within the presentation.
