    Are smart meters secure?

    • Answer
    • Yes. We have developed and continue to develop high standards of security for smart meters, taking on board lessons learnt from other programmes around the world. Every component of our smart meters has strong security features to protect information, including access controls, tamper proofing and encryption to protect data in transit.

      Our systems are regularly assessed by independent third parties to ensure our security is robust. We will continue to work with regulators, consumer groups, and other energy suppliers to ensure that industry system are well protected.
