Tools and techniques for the management and evaluation of cloud security certifications-v1

This deliverable will entail tools and techniques for and managing technical evidences with the aim to evaluate them according to a certifications’ chosen conformity method. This will be accompanied by research into novel approaches to establish a digital audit trail of both the collected evaluated evidence as well as the certification target. Additionally, components need to be designed and implemented maintain the life-cycle of a continuous certificate in an automated way, i.e. using smart contracts. An early prototype will be delivered as the first iteration of the deliverable. The prototype will be updated and refined based on the implementation of the use cases (see Task 6.2). This deliverable is the result of Task 4.1, Task 4.2 and Task 4.3.
