Abstract
This chapter delves into the cyber security challenges faced by smart cities, with a specific focus on the intelligent, integrated, and interconnected electric vehicle (EV) charging infrastructure. The analysis, conducted with meticulous attention to detail, leaves no stone unturned in demonstrating that not all innovative elements and smart city solutions have sufficient cybersecurity protection. It is crucial to recognize that certain novel technologies, such as vehicle-to-grid (V2G), smart charging, and intelligent energy management, pose significantly higher risks than others. The central objective is to create a strong foundation for securing EV charging infrastructure by thoroughly analyzing the problem context and the data that needs protection, including attack surfaces, cybersecurity threats, and vulnerabilities in the EV ecosystem. Additionally, it involves evaluating standardization for the EV connection to the charging infrastructure and presenting a comprehensive set of recommendations and best practices for securing EV charging infrastructure.
