Consumers who charge an electric vehicle on a regular basis may leave a data trail. With each charging process, the system saves when and where it took place and which customer paid for it – a privacy risk, says Tilman Frosch from the Chair for Systems Security at the Ruhr-Universität Bochum (RUB). In "RUBIN", the RUB science magazine, he presents a solution designed to ensure the privacy of users' data during the charging process.
