This open access book presents the main scientific results from the H2020 GUARD project. The
GUARD project aims at filling the current technological gap between software management
paradigms and cybersecurity models the latter still lacking orchestration and agility to
effectively address the dynamicity of the former. This book provides a comprehensive review of
the main concepts architectures algorithms and non-technical aspects developed during three
years of investigation the description of the Smart Mobility use case developed at the end of
the project gives a practical example of how the GUARD platform and related technologies can be
deployed in practical scenarios. We expect the book to be interesting for the broad group of
researchers engineers and professionals daily experiencing the inadequacy of outdated
cybersecurity models for modern computing environments and cyber-physical systems.
