Enhancing EV Charging Resilience: A Review of Blockchain and Cybersecurity Applications

Gonesh Chandra Saha, Ahmed Afif Monrat, Karl Andersson · Journal of Cybersecurity and Privacy · 2026

The rapid expansion of electric vehicles (EVs) has added complexity to the resilience and security challenges to the EV charging systems, especially owing to the exposure to the cyber–physical threats and the reliance on centrally coordinated systems. Although the previous literature has discussed the use of blockchain in the context of smart grids and mobility services; its implementation to improve the resilience of EV charging, particularly when integrated with cybersecurity systems, is still insufficiently synthesized. Despite these issues, critical gaps persist in terms of scalability, interoperability, and cybersecurity enforcement. This study presents an exploratory literature review that examines the intersection of blockchain and cybersecurity enabled applications and introduces a comparative framework evaluating the conventional security controls with blockchain based cybersecurity solutions to improve the resilience of EV charging infrastructure. The authors analyzed 70 studies published between 2018 and 2025 to determine the security weaknesses and map them to decentralized solutions. Reported threats, security mechanisms, architectural decisions, and levels of validati
