The emerging Internet of Things (IoT) and cloud computing technologies are expected to advance the battery management systems (BMSs) by fully utilizing IoT wireless network, powerful computing and unlimited cloud support, resulting in providing significant value in cost reduction, extended scalability, and greater visibility in the lithium-ion battery energy storage systems. However, IoT presents a growing threat from cyber-attacks as the IoT devices are always connected on networks. The paper provides potential cyber-attack schemes and defense strategies to protect an IoTenabled BMS systems from malicious cyber-attacks, ensuring the secure utilization of the next-generation BMSs in cyberphysical environments.
