How Hackers Are Weaponizing Electric Vehicle Charging Stations

In this episode, Lucas and Luna explore a new attack surface that most cybersecurity professionals haven't yet locked down: electric vehicle charging stations. They break down a real-world breach at a major European charging network in May 2026, where attackers exploited insecure OCPP (Open Charge Point Protocol) implementations to remotely disable chargers, steal payment data, and even manipulate power draw. The discussion covers why charging stations often run outdated Linux kernels, how the OCPP protocol lacks authentication by default, and what the $50 million investment in stress-testing AI agents by Patronus AI tells us about the broader challenge of securing physical infrastructure connected to the cloud. Lucas connects the dots to recent moves by OKTA and Fortinet stock moves, arguing that identity and edge security will matter even more as EV adoption accelerates. Tune in to understand why the next big breach might not come from your laptop but from your car's charging cable. #Cybersecurity #EVCyberAttack #OCPP #ChargingStationHack #PatronusAI #PhysicalSecurity #CloudMisconfiguration #EVInfrastructure #CyberThreat #VulnerabilityResearch #IoTSecurity #PowerGridSecurity #OKTA #Fortinet #NetworkSecurity #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast #Technology Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
