ESET, a leading European cybersecurity firm, and EVC Group have announced a strategic partnership focused on enhancing Europe’s cyber and energy resilience. Their collaboration aims to develop CyberSec BESS, a new generation of cyber-secure battery energy storage systems tailored for the European market. With battery storage systems playing a crucial role in supporting power grids and critical energy infrastructure, this partnership places a strong emphasis on integrating cybersecurity alongside performance and reliability.
The agreement was solidified with the signing of a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) that establishes a framework for the development, certification, and commercialization of CyberSec BESS. Officially unveiled on June 25, 2026, at the Intersolar Europe event in Munich, the project seeks to comply with current and forthcoming European Union cybersecurity regulations. The aim is to bolster the long-term resilience of critical energy systems while supporting the modernization of Europe’s energy sector.
CyberSec BESS combines European expertise in cybersecurity, system integration, and certification with global battery manufacturing capabilities. Martin Talian, ESET’s Chief Corporate Solutions Officer, emphasized that cybersecurity should be an integral component of battery storage systems from the outset. The initiative allows ESET to leverage its experience in safeguarding critical infrastructure to help build an energy sector capable of withstanding both current and emerging cyber threats.
Oliver Garaj, Managing Director of EVC Group, highlighted the importance of a comprehensive systems approach to resilient energy infrastructure, rather than merely assembling individual technologies. The partnership is set to bring together engineering expertise, advanced 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 importance as the European energy landscape continues to evolve.
According to Frost Radar™: Endpoint Security, 2025 by Frost & Sullivan, ESET is the largest global cybersecurity provider headquartered in Europe, offering AI-powered cybersecurity solutions for businesses and critical infrastructure. Through its collaboration with EVC Group, ESET aims to enhance Europe’s energy resilience and support the secure deployment of next-generation battery storage technologies.
