Integrated lithium battery energy storage solutions
CYBERSECURITY & ACCESS CONTROL

For every connection, operation, and change,
All through the trusted boundary.

An in-depth protection system from asset, network, identity, control to cloud connection for energy storage sites based on a credible identity, minimal authority and auditable access. Any remote access and critical operations must be sourced, authorized, disciplined and result-oriented.

02 Identity and Minimum Permissions

Identity type Identity Source Role / Service Site Range Asset scope Permissions MFA Status
Personnel status zhang.min Remote Engineer Site-A BESS-PCS-07 Read / Controlled Operations Yes. Entry into force
Personnel status li.yan Security Analyst All stations Security incidents Read-Only Yes. Entry into force

Remote Engineer: Access to designated sites and PCS is only allowed in the approval window, and the entire site cannot be controlled by successful login.

• Credible access paths Single entry · across a trusted boundary

All remote access must be verified layer by layer on controlled paths; external users cannot jump directly into the device zone.

12 Border relations and interface management

Cloud–Edge Run-time boundary

Define who runs between clouds, edges, field controls, data caches, offline autonomy, renewal and recovery.
  • Security controls remain on the scene.
  • On the edge, take on DMZ and interview agents
  • Cloud cover cross-site analysis and management
↔

API/ Interface Compact System Interactive Boundaries

Define what data is allowed to be exchanged between systems, who can call, how to authenticate, how to fail and how to audit.
  • Interface Schema and version controlled
  • Writing requires explicit authorization
  • The order must be retroactive.
Ultimate Principle: Platform connections must be met simultaneously Controllable, auditable, abnormally responsive, system recoverableI don't know. The goal of the security system is not to block all connections, but to keep all permitted connections within clear, controlled and verifiable boundaries.
