Assessing Software Security, prIvacy, and SusTAiNability through Testing techniqueS
Assistants is a project funded by European Union – Next Generation EU within the PRIN 2022 PNRR program (D.D.1409 del 14/09/2022 Ministero dell’Università e della Ricerca)
ASSISTANTS Project Overview
Objective: The ASSISTANTS project aims to enhance the sustainability, security, and privacy of Smart Home software, building upon the success of the SIFIS-Home project concluded in September 2023.
Key Features:
- Sustainability Label: Utilizes static and dynamic analysis techniques on software source code to assign a Sustainability Label, reflecting the software’s environmental impact.
- Enhanced Security: Focuses on robust security measures to safeguard users against cyber threats.
- GDPR Compliance: Ensures user data management aligns with European Law (GDPR) through a dedicated web platform.
User Empowerment:
- Data Management Platform: Offers a platform for users to control personal data processed by their Smart Home, allowing for device reconfiguration based on user preferences.
- Rights Exercise Mechanism: Facilitates user interaction with data controllers for easier exercise of data rights.
Technological Approach:
- CI/CD Platform Integration: Implements analysis techniques into Continuous Integration/Continuous Delivery platforms.
- Programming Language Study: Investigates programming languages that inherently support security and sustainability.
