Original: Researchers find almost 8,000 European solar energy systems exposed to internet cyberattacks
Researchers have identified almost 8,000 solar energy systems across Europe that are exposed to potential cyberattacks over the internet. The findings raise concerns about the security of distributed renewable energy infrastructure, which is increasingly connected to the web for monitoring and management. Experts warn that vulnerable inverters and control systems could be exploited to disrupt power supply or grids.
Why now: Growing reliance on grid-connected renewable energy makes vulnerabilities in solar infrastructure a timely security concern
