CROSS-CERTIFICATION METHOD AND DEVICE FOR CHARGING ELECTRIC VEHICLE - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240121110 titled 'CROSS-CERTIFICATION METHOD AND DEVICE FOR CHARGING ELECTRIC VEHICLE

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes an authentication method and device for a charging station to verify a contract certificate of an electric vehicle using a cross certificate when the charging station does not have an MO RootCA certificate. The method involves transmitting an SECC certificate chain to the electric vehicle, receiving a verification result, receiving a contract certificate chain from the electric vehicle, and verifying the cross certificate and contract certificate based on predetermined certificates.

  • Explanation of the patent/innovation:
 * Transmit SECC certificate chain to electric vehicle
 * Receive verification result for SECC certificate
 * Receive contract certificate chain from electric vehicle
 * Verify cross certificate based on predetermined RootCA certificate
 * Verify contract certificate based on obtained public key
      1. Potential Applications:

- Electric vehicle charging stations - Secure contract verification systems

      1. Problems Solved:

- Authentication of electric vehicles in charging stations - Ensuring secure transactions between vehicles and charging stations

      1. Benefits:

- Enhanced security for charging transactions - Streamlined authentication process for electric vehicles

      1. Potential Commercial Applications:
        1. Secure Authentication for Electric Vehicle Charging Stations
      1. Possible Prior Art:

- Authentication methods for electronic devices - Certificate verification systems

        1. Unanswered Questions:
        2. How does this method handle potential security threats?

Original Abstract Submitted

an authentication method and device enable a charging station to verify a contract certificate of an electric vehicle based on a cross certificate when the charging station is not equipped with an mo rootca certificate. an electric vehicle authentication method for providing plug-and-charge charging to the electric vehicle in the charging station includes: transmitting, to the electric vehicle, an secc certificate chain including an secc certificate and at least one charging device family subca certificate and receiving a verification result for the secc certificate from the electric vehicle; receiving a contract certificate chain including a contract certificate from the electric vehicle; and verifying the cross certificate based on a predetermined rootca certificate to obtain a public key of a charging operator rootca or a charging operator subca included in the cross certificate and verifying the contract certificate based on an obtained public key.
