FINSENY presented in the IARIA conference INTERNET 2012 in Venice, Italy, June 27, 2012

FINSENY presented the current status of security for the connection of electric vehicles to the charging infrastructure, as defined by e-mobility FINSENY use case

FINSENY results have been presented at the IARIA conference Internet 2012 (scheduled in June 2012, http://www.iaria.org/conferences2012/INTERNET12.html ). The conference addressed potential topics around the changing Internet.

We prepared the contribution, which has been originally compiled in the context of the BMWi funded project Harz.EE.Mobility in June 2011 and presented at a VDI event in Germany. Since FINSENY targets Smart Grid security and specifically for electric mobility as part of WP5, the content of the paper was updated to reflect the current state of the standard development and provided more information about the now more specified security approaches relating to the FINSENY e-mobility use case. The paper and the associated presentation addressed current options for the secure connection of electric vehicles to the charging infrastructure based on an analysis of basic use cases and potential threats. Based on this first security requirements are derived. These are mapped against two standards for the connection of electric vehicles to the charging infrastructure. The focus of this work lies on the very interface between the electric vehicle and the charging spot and thus concentrates on IEC 61851 and IEC 15118. Especially the latter one comprises communication on higher layers and already features security functionality. The discussion of security regarding the vehicle to grid interface has also been considered for the definition of the security architecture elements, part of D1.10
