The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) has released draft cybersecurity guidelines for smart inverters used in small-scale solar deployments. The guidelines emphasize the importance of configuring smart inverters in a grid-friendly manner to prevent negative impacts on utilities and grid stability. They recommend manufacturers to embed cybersecurity capabilities into smart inverters. NIST also highlights the potential cyberattack risks associated with misconfigured smart inverters and provides recommendations to protect communication and disable unused features. The guidelines aim to enhance cybersecurity in smart inverters to address vulnerabilities identified through NIST's research.
