Critical Security Intervention: Protecting EV Infrastructure from Data Exposure

Comprehensive security assessment prevents unauthorized access to sensitive customer data

The Challenge

An electric vehicle supply equipment company faced a critical security vulnerability. Public access to log files exposed sensitive information, including user IPs, actions, and potential security flaws.

The dataCRaiM Solution

In collaboration with clouddefense.ai, DataCRaiM conducted a comprehensive security assessment and identified the critical vulnerability. We proposed and implemented a multi-faceted solution that included :

  • Restricting Access - Implementing access controls to restrict public access to log files. 
  • Data Encryption - Encrypting sensitive data within log files to protect confidentiality.  
  • Anomaly Monitoring - Establishing a system for monitoring log files for suspicious activity. 
  • Data Minimization - Removing unnecessary sensitive data from log files. 
  • Security Awareness Training - Providing security awareness training to employees to promote best practices.    
  • Compliance Guidance - Recommending compliance with relevant data security regulations. 
  • Penetration Testing - Advising on regular penetration testing to identify and address potential vulnerabilities. 
  • System Maintenance - Emphasizing the importance of keeping systems up to date with security patches and backups. 

Impact

This solution aided in preventing sensitive data exposure, vulnerability to attacks, user profiling for targeted threats, legal consequences, reputation damage, financial losses and loss of trust.
