In a move to bolster Europe’s cyber and energy resilience, ESET and EVC Group have formed a strategic partnership to develop cutting-edge battery energy storage systems. This collaboration aims to launch CyberSec BESS, a new generation of cyber-secure battery storage solutions tailored for the European market. As battery storage systems become increasingly vital to the support of power grids and critical energy infrastructure, ensuring their cybersecurity has emerged as a crucial priority, alongside enhancing performance and reliability.
The partnership was cemented through a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) that outlines the development, certification, and commercialization framework for CyberSec BESS. This initiative was unveiled on June 25, 2026, at Intersolar Europe in Munich, a premier event focused on renewable energy and energy storage technologies. CyberSec BESS is designed to comply with existing and future European Union cybersecurity regulations, aiming to reinforce the long-term resilience of critical energy systems.
CyberSec BESS seeks to integrate European expertise in cybersecurity, system integration, and certification with global battery manufacturing capabilities. Martin Talian, Chief Corporate Solutions Officer at ESET, emphasized that battery storage is a crucial component of modern energy infrastructure and should be inherently designed with cybersecurity in mind. This initiative allows ESET to leverage its experience in safeguarding critical infrastructure, contributing to an energy sector equipped to face current and emerging cyber threats.
Oliver Garaj, Managing Director of EVC Group, highlighted the importance of a comprehensive systems approach in maintaining resilient energy infrastructure, rather than merely combining separate technologies. Through this partnership, engineering expertise, advanced energy technologies, and stringent cybersecurity standards are unified to produce battery storage systems that prioritize security, transparency, and operational reliability. The companies assert that these attributes will be increasingly significant as Europe’s energy sector continues to evolve.
According to the Frost Radar™: Endpoint Security, 2025 report by Frost & Sullivan, ESET holds the distinction of being the largest global cybersecurity provider based in Europe. The company offers AI-driven cybersecurity solutions across endpoints, cloud, and mobile environments, enhanced by advanced threat intelligence and security monitoring. By partnering with EVC Group, ESET aims to bolster Europe’s energy resilience while facilitating the secure deployment of next-generation battery storage technologies.
