A Blockchain-Based Smart Contract Approach
Published on 2025-02-15 by Abdullahi Chowdhury, Sakib Shahriar Shafin, Saleh Masum, Joarder Kamruzzaman, Shi Dong @MDPI
Abstract: Increasing adoption of electric vehicles (EVs) and the expansion of EV charging infrastructure present opportunities for enhancing sustainable transportation within smart cities. However, the interconnected nature of EV charging stations (EVCSs) exposes this infrastructure to various cyber threats, including false data injection, man-in-the-middle attacks, malware intrusions, and denial of service attacks. Financial attacks, such as false billing and theft of credit card information, also pose s[...]
Our summary: Blockchain-based smart contract approach for enhancing sustainable transportation within smart cities, mitigating cyber threats in EV charging stations, and increasing user trust in EVCS systems.
