What is TRUSTEE about
In accordance with the principles of responsible/trustworthy AI and by employing a co-development approach as the foundation methodology, TRUSTEE proposes a secure-by-design Federated Platform in accordance with EU data strategy (COM (2020) 66) and the main EU reference architectures (GAIA-X, EOSC, EGI) in the sector, capable of ensuring interoperability, enabling cross-border scenarios, and scaling a variety of AI-based applications through the use of open APIs, with the goal of making the EU the world's most secure and trustworthy data hub.
​
How will TRUSTEE achieve those goals
To achieve this, we employ a novel homomorphic approach that ensures user-friendly, safe, trustworthy, compliant, fair, transparent, accountable, and long-term data collection, storage, processing, querying, and delivery.
​
Why do we need TRUSTEE
Digital technologies generate both challenges and opportunities. Thus, there is a need to assess how well they can be used to improve the accessibility and quality of multidisciplinary big-data sources from diverse sectors in a trustworthy, fair, responsible, and environmentally friendly manner across the data lifecycle.
