The Competence Center for Applied Security Technology (KASTEL) is one of three competence centers for cyber security in Germany, which were initiated in March 2011.

PrognoSF aims to accurately predict local flash floods by analyzing all available data sources with AI-based algorithms.

Cyber resilience is seen as the next step in IT security and focuses primarily on incident response and restoring process capability. Appropriate monitoring of process-carrying automation systems and infrastructures is necessary to achieve cyber resilience.

A project of the same name aims to harness our experience across a whole host of AI application domains to realize MLOps with maximum effectiveness and automate it as far as possible. To that end a software suite was developed that incorporates a wide range of tools for creating machine learning applications and training the ML models.

The Karlsruher Forschungsfabrik for AI-integrated production offers the special opportunity to research and develop the topic of “Intelligent Production” in a practical way on real processes.

“AutoInspect” is a system for continuous object assessment (in real time) by multimodal inspection along the production cycle. Both a direct reaction to the results and their long-term observation are possible. The system is supported by a digital quality twin with open I4.0 standards.

If you want to implement reactive Digital Twins in an interoperable and transparent way, then FA³ST Service should be a key component in your IT stack.

Fraunhofer Advanced Asset Administration Shell Tools for Digital Twins for implementing and managing digital twins based on the asset administration shell.

In the Fraunhofer ML4P lead project, several Fraunhofer Institutes are pooling their application experience and machine learning skills to develop solutions for industry. The aim is to develop a tool-supported process model that paves the way for flexible, fast-learning machines and systems.

The GDS is a Fraunhofer IOSB implementation for managing OPC UA applications and their certificate management.
