Solarsecure Tech said the SolarSecure Vision gateway is installed at the meter connection point and interrupts direct communication between the inverter and the manufacturer’s cloud.
The device analyzes incoming control commands and only forwards signals that are classified as secure or cryptographically authenticated, blocking unverifiable instructions.
Legitimate signals from the grid operator, such as power reduction orders under Article 9 of the German Renewable Energy Sources Act, are sent via a separate secure channel.
The company says this approach reduces dependence on third-party cloud platforms while maintaining regulatory compliance.
The gateway also offers an optional drone detection module that captures radio frequency signatures from unmanned aerial systems and integrates them into what the company calls multi-dimensional sensor fusion. By correlating unusual operational technology network activity with nearby drone signals, the system can activate a heightened security mode, restrict communications or notify operators.
Solarsecure Tech is in the spin-off phase and is preparing proof-of-concept projects. Certification by the German Federal Office for Information Security and the Association for Electrical, Electronic and Information Technologies is planned, while field reference installations are still pending.
The hardware-agnostic system is intended to be compatible with common inverter types and installed by plant engineers or grid operators.
