The PREVENT Project
Cyberattacks targeting electric vehicles (EVs), charging stations, and grid-connected mobility systems are increasing in frequency and complexity, threatening Europe’s digital, energy, and transport resilience. The newly launched project PREVENT – Protecting Road Electric Vehicles Ecosystem through Enhanced Cyber Resilience and Networked Threat Mitigation – deliversEurope’s first end-to-end cybersecurity framework for the e-mobility ecosystem, to protect EVs, EVSE, backend platforms, roaming, and grid interfaces. Funded through Horizon Europe, PREVENT provides a modular, standards-based architecture and advanced solutions for preparation, prevention, detection, and response to cyber threats.
The Consortium
The PREVENT project brings together 23 partners from 8 European countries (Austria, Belgium, France, Germany, Italy, Slovenia, Spain and UK). The consortium is a dynamic alliance of leading organisations spanning the entire value chain of the e-mobility ecosystem of EV OEM, Electric vehicle supply equipment (EVSE) (EVSE) manufacturers, DSO, CPO/eMSP, Roaming, and EV fleet operators. Together with the experts in the cybersecurity domain, R&D, digital twin development, certification, standardisation, legal, social sciences and communication and dissemination, PREVENT consortium is fully aligned to meet the project’s ambitious goal of delivering Europe’s first end-to end cybersecurity framework.
