The elements in the electric vehicle ecosystem use information system resources to communicate with each other. If the confidentiality, integrity and accessibility of information in information system resources are not ensured, problems ranging from personal privacy to global data disclosure may be encountered. The main purpose of this study is to understand the vulnerability of electric vehicle charging stations that operate dependent on information systems to cyber-attacks and to reveal the cyber security risks of electric vehicle charging stations in detail by comprehensively analysing the relevant literature sources. In this context, the operating principle of electric vehicles, which are increasingly used today, was investigated and electric vehicle types were examined. The general architecture of charging stations used in charging electric vehicles, charging types, charging sockets and international standards that must be followed in the design of these components were conceptually examined. The vulnerability of these components to cyber security threats was investigated in line with the literature. In order to guide future studies, open research areas for reducing cyber security risks in electric vehicle charging stations were included in the last section of the study.
