• Custom development of specialized hardware and embedded software
• Precision Agriculture & Smart Irrigation
• Internet of Things (IoT) integration & smart city solutions

Synelixis has long experience in a variety of international research programs, leading a significant number of them. As a result of this involvement comes our constant engagement with cutting-edge technologies and the development of new ones. Synelixis’ engineers are continuously trained in the use and development of the latest technologies. Thus, the company is able to improve and enrich its existing portfolio of services, designing and implementing innovative solutions to modern problems.

Synelixis provides a flexible precision agriculture solution under the SynField product family. SynField offers smart irrigation and water management with advanced control and monitoring of small and medium-sized farms, smart parks, and water supply networks. It also offers remote monitoring of climatic, environmental and soil conditions (e.g., air temperature, wind speed and direction, rainfall, humidity, soil temperature and conductivity, leaf wetness), while also providing remote control of irrigation and water management systems. 

In NEMO, Synelixis is the Technical Coordinator, ensuring compliance to the project’s technical roadmap and delivery of notable technological outcomes. Synelixis also leads the activities towards the NEMO meta-OS support for ZeroOps deployment and delivery of the “Intent Migration as a Service” model, which will facilitate the adoption of NEMO by third parties. Beyond technological development and technical coordination, within NEMO, Synelixis actively participates in the Smart Farming living lab, powered by Synelixis’ SynField, experimenting on extending its SynField platform to support smart placement of services across the IoT-Edge-Cloud continuum, offering AI in the farm, integration with agri-drones and agro-robots.

Sphynx Technology Solutions (STS) offers products and solutions as well as consulting services, in the areas of cyber intelligence, analytics, incident response, assurance, and certification. STS provides customised and continuous security and privacy assessment solutions, covering the full range of socio-technical aspects of a modern enterprise, for internal risk management and/or external security audit and certification. STS solutions are based on our novel security assurance and certification platform and its advanced analytics and cyber intelligence.

In NEMO, STS is responsible for the Cybersecurity & Digital Identity attestation task which allows the implementation of the NEMO platform based on a “by design” cybersecurity approach. STS is leading the analysis of the cybersecurity requirements of the NEMO platform and the identification of the tools and extensions that are needed so as to ensure end-to-end secure, trusted and traceable micro-services execution. The approaches adopted by Linux (i.e. AppArmor, SELinux, Smack) and Mutual TLS will be further analyzed adopted and utilized wherever possible as well as existing and newly developed Digital Identity attestation and ingress control modules.

STS will mainly work on developing efficient Access control policies which are a fundamental aspect of access management systems. Such policies define the rules and conditions that determine how access rights and permissions are granted or denied to users, resources, or functionalities within a system. These policies play a crucial role in maintaining the security, confidentiality, integrity, and availability of sensitive information and resources.

Moreover, STS will develop a novel, yet processing efficient, Identity Management Systems (IMS) that will provide to the overall NEMO platform a centralized framework for managing the lifecycle of digital identities, access privileges, and associated attributes. The developed NEMO IMS will encompass a wide range of capabilities, including identity provisioning, authentication, authorization, and auditing, all of which will contribute to establishing and maintaining a secure and well-managed NEMO identity infrastructure.
