Abstract:
In this paper, we present a decentralized approach to securing charging infrastructure in the private and semi- public sector. The goal is strengthening the resilience of charging infrastructure through enhanced security mechanisms based on sharing context information. Therefore, an architecture was developed that combines concepts of data acquisition, information exchange and analysis methods to efficiently monitor Electric Vehicle Supply Equipment systems. The "Resiliente und Sichere Ladeinfrastruktur" research project architecture connects the interfaces between charging hardware, a highly scalable Peer-to- Peer cybersecurity mesh network and the static and Artificial Intelligence-supported analysis processes on the top layer. The most important tasks across the domains of detection, reaction, attribution and prevention are taken into account. A large information space, which aggregates the content of the individual domains, is created and made available in the network. The context data of the information space is obtained from the individual peers and used for the analysis. Context-based data regarding loading procedures, network communication parame- ters, system loads, Open Charge Point Protocol parameters, and other domain data clusters are recorded. The extended local and central analysis use the context information for monitoring and attack classification. The context information is transmitted via an InterPlanetary File System-based Peer-to-Peer mesh network.
