Cyber security layer for product Battery Management System

Project scope
Categories
Security (cybersecurity and IT security) Information technology Software developmentSkills
cyber security communication battery management sensors voltage building automationBMS is the most important component for our battery module and facilitates the function of the product. Not having a security layer can expose the product and could potentially cause damage to the user. One of our major goal is to create an end to end safe product for the user.
Fetherstill has written code for the BMS to execute a specific set of functions. The main goal is to develop code and create a cyber security layer within the BMS software to avoid any system malfunction.
Learners would need to develop a cyber security later to avoid the following:
- Compromise the temperature sensors in the battery module.
- Compromise the module voltage and ahmps during charging and discharging.
- Modification of software that performs a set of defined functions.
- Compromise communication between the BMS and the inverter.
- Compromise the AC and DC input and output values.
Learners would have access to the following to complete the project:
- designs and technology
- software code
- Access to virtual technical team meetings with St Clair College, Windsor ON.

About the company
We understand that the beating heart of an electric vehicle or any energy storage system is its battery pack. Our team is now undertaking the design and development our own battery module which will be aimed at bringing in the most desired cell chemistry, striking a sound balance between weight, energy density and power, all functioning smoothly with an efficient thermal management system, well suited into our unique design to fulfill the major requirements of efficiency and performance. This module can be scaled to be effectively used in an electric vehicle, along with energy storage applications functioning in any industry from residential/commercial use to passenger transport to construction to agriculture.
