60 Hurts per Second – How We Got Access to Enough Solar Power to Run the United States
- Bitdefender researchers have identified a series of vulnerabilities in PV plant management platforms operated by Solarman and Deye. This platform is responsible for coordinating production operations of millions of solar installations worldwide generating a whopping output of approximately 195 GW of solar power (20% of the global solar production) If exploited, these vulnerabilities could allow an attacker to control inverter settings that could take parts of the grid down, potentially causing blackouts. * These vulnerabilities have been communicated to the affected vendors and fixed.
