UK encouraged to prioritise cybersecurity at EV charge points T
he Department for Transport has announced new measures to accelerate the installation of EV infrastructure, following its announcement in December to install 30,000 new charge points. This will be done through off ering grants to public schools, nurseries, and local authorities.
Industry leader Bureau Veritas has emphasised the critical need to also focus on cybersecurity risks associated with the growing EV infrastructure, especially with the recent National Grid warning associated with EV owners.
George White, senior consultant for EV charging at Bureau Veritas, commented: “In the pursuit of this electrifi ed future, the digital aspect is rife with evolving cybersecurity threats that could potentially compromise the integrity of EV charging points. Unauthorised access through unprotected network or peripheral device interfaces poses a huge risk, as does fi rmware-based attacks that manipulate voltage settings, potentially causing major damage. “Ensuring the supplier of charge points adheres to this before they ship is key to ensuring that the right levels of security are maintained over its lifetime.”
