Cybersecurity in Electric Vehicle (EV) Charging Stations

As electric vehicles (EVs) become more widespread, the demand for charging stations has increased, making these networks a target for cyberattacks. Charging stations, which rely on digital systems to manage transactions, track energy usage, and communicate with vehicles, are vulnerable to hackers. If compromised, they could cause disruptions, delay charging, and even compromise vehicle security. To mitigate these risks, operators must ensure that charging stations are secured with strong encryption, secure payment systems, and frequent system audits
