Cybersecurity vulnerabilities in solar power systems have potential risks to grid security and stability.
A study conducted by Forescout Research analyzed the vulnerabilities of solar power systems from three leading manufacturers.
The study highlighted the need for risk mitigation and outlined recommendations for smart inverter owners, utilities, manufacturers, and regulators.
The vulnerabilities identified in the study have been addressed by the manufacturers, but they could allow attackers to take control of solar power inverters and impact grid stability.
