In a significant move to bolster Europe’s cyber and energy resilience, ESET and EVC Group have forged a strategic alliance to develop innovative battery energy storage systems. This partnership is set to introduce CyberSec BESS, an advanced series of cyber-secure battery storage solutions specifically tailored for the European market. As battery storage systems become increasingly vital in supporting power grids and critical energy infrastructure, ensuring cybersecurity alongside performance and reliability has become crucial. The agreement underscores the growing importance of integrating cybersecurity with energy technologies.
The collaboration between ESET and EVC Group was solidified through a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU), which outlines the framework for developing, certifying, and commercializing CyberSec BESS. Officially announced on June 25, 2026, at the Intersolar Europe event in Munich, a premier platform for renewable energy and storage technologies, this initiative aligns with both current and anticipated European Union cybersecurity regulations. It is designed to enhance the long-term resilience of critical energy systems across Europe.
CyberSec BESS is set to leverage European expertise in cybersecurity, system integration, and certification, coupled with global battery manufacturing capabilities. Martin Talian, Chief Corporate Solutions Officer at ESET, emphasized the importance of integrating cybersecurity into battery storage from the outset, rather than as an afterthought. This initiative provides a unique opportunity to apply ESET’s extensive experience in safeguarding critical infrastructure, thereby preparing the energy sector for existing and future cyber threats.
Oliver Garaj, Managing Director of EVC Group, highlighted the necessity of a comprehensive systems approach to building resilient energy infrastructure. He noted that the partnership amalgamates engineering expertise, cutting-edge energy technologies, and stringent cybersecurity standards to create battery storage systems that prioritize security, transparency, operational reliability, and robust performance. These attributes are expected to gain increasing significance as the modernization of Europe’s energy sector progresses.
According to the 2025 Frost Radar™: Endpoint Security report by Frost & Sullivan, ESET stands as the largest global cybersecurity provider headquartered in Europe. The company offers AI-powered cybersecurity solutions for businesses, individuals, and critical infrastructure, spanning endpoint, cloud, and mobile environments. Supported by advanced threat intelligence, encryption, multifactor authentication, and continuous security monitoring, ESET aims to enhance Europe’s energy resilience through its collaboration with EVC Group, facilitating the secure deployment of next-generation battery storage technologies.
