About

The startup is part of the research carried out in recent years by the Satellite Communications and heterogeneous Networking Laboratory (SCNL) afferent to the Department of Naval, Electrical, Electronics and Telecommunications Engineering (DITEN) of the University of Genoa, in the field of cybersecurity of critical infrastructures. The research group has tackled in recent years, with a strongly interdisciplinary vocation, the problem of protecting industrial control networks, highlighting the need to bring together expertise in both cybersecurity, networking, and industrial engineering in order to effectively protect these infrastructures.
AIrFIELD offers solutions for cybersecurity monitoring through network traffic analysis. While several companies mostly propose solutions for monitoring networks with TCP/IP architecture, AIrFIELD focuses on the lower layers of the architecture, up to the analysis, assisted by the use of Artificial Intelligence, of Fieldbuses. This approach is highly innovative, and in accordance with the increasing complexity of cyber attacks that has been occurring in recent years. A further element of innovation is the integration of the latest Machine Learning and Deep Learning technologies, tools that are increasingly needed to cope with such complexity and vastness of data
