Security Through Obscurity:
Why We Don’t Share All
Protecting Information, Protecting Infrastructure
CableGuard® is designed to tackle one of the EV industry’s fastest-growing threats: cable theft. While we openly share the fundamentals such as cut-resistant sleeves, forensic traceability, retrofit-ready design; we deliberately keep the finer details under wraps. Revealing every element publicly risks informing those with ill intent, making infrastructure more vulnerable rather than safer.
Some Details Stay Hidden for a Reason
By keeping the inner workings of CableGuard® out of the public domain, we ensure criminals can’t study, copy, or plan around the system. This principle of security through obscurity is a proven strategy across industries, where revealing too much detail weakens protection. For operators, it means peace of mind that their assets are defended by a system thieves can’t easily anticipate.
Why You Need To Speak To Us
For charge point operators and infrastructure owners, the complete story is available but only in the right setting.
The best way to understand CableGuard®’s capabilities, versions, and site-specific applications is through a private meeting with our team. We’ll walk you through exactly how the system works and how it can protect your estate, without risking sensitive details falling into the wrong hands.
