In this holiday weekend edition of Cybersecurity Today, Jim Love introduces David Shipley's interview with Steve Visconti, CEO of Xiid Corporation, about cybersecurity risks in electric vehicle (EV) charging infrastructure. Visconti explains Xiid's software-based security layer for IP networks, aimed at critical infrastructure across enterprise, public sector, and DOD environments, and its growing focus on OT/IoT such as EV charging systems. The discussion highlights how EV chargers connect vehicles, homes, back-office billing/control systems, cloud services, and potentially vehicle-to-grid power flows, creating large-scale attack surfaces that could enable disruption, DDoS activity, or broader grid instability. Visconti argues for "unreachability" architectures that close ports and remove static exposure while allowing only registered users and machine-to-machine access. The interview also touches on concerns about vulnerabilities leading to fires, supply-chain risks, and policy debates such as government-accessible vehicle kill switches.
