The EVC Guardian project, awarded under the CONSOLE External Validation Activities (EVA), focuses on strengthening the cybersecurity of EV charging software systems, particularly those handling financial transactions and cross-platform integrations. Within the EV Loader ecosystem, our applications rely heavily on OCPI-based communication with third-party roaming partners and payment providers such as Payter, where sensitive data exchanges and billing processes introduce significant cybersecurity risks.
In this context, vulnerabilities in API connections, authentication flows, or data integrity mechanisms could lead to financial fraud, incorrect billing, or disruption of charging services across multiple stakeholders. The CONSOLE platform is leveraged to monitor and analyse the production codebase that manages these interactions, using static code analysis, vulnerability detection, and security reporting dashboards.
Through EVC Guardian, we validate how CONSOLE can support real-world secure software development in a highly interconnected and financially sensitive environment, ensuring that EV charging services remain trustworthy, resilient, and compliant with emerging cybersecurity requirements.
