GuardAI Enhancing Robustness and Security of Edge AI Systems for Safety-Critical Applications

Coordinator: UNIVERSITY OF CYPRUS (CY)

The GuardAI project seeks to enhance the security of edge AI systems, addressing their critical vulnerabilities. Emphasis is placed on high-stakes domains, as outlined in the EU’s AI Act, where these systems, including drones, connected and autonomous vehicles, and network edge infrastructure, are becoming widespread and will play a pivotal role in making crucial decisions. These cutting-edge applications heavily rely on real-time decision-making and the processing of sensitive data, rendering them susceptible to various security threats and adversarial attacks. Therefore, the overarching obj…
