Emobi and OmniTrust Partner to Deliver Security-First Plug & Charge for the EV Charging Ecosystem

Published

on

Partnership strengthens secure authentication, encrypted communications, and digital trust across EV charging infrastructure using Emobi’s JustPlug™ platform

SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 5, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Emobi, North America’s largest EV charging roaming and JustPlug infrastructure provider, today announced a strategic partnership with OmniTrust to advance secure, seamless Plug & Charge adoption across the EV charging ecosystem. The collaboration brings OmniTrust’s expertise in cryptographic trust together with Emobi’s JustPlug™, its cloud-based Plug & Charge solution that works seamlessly across both modern and legacy hardware and is built on the ISO 15118 standard. This partnership directly addresses growing security, interoperability, and scalability challenges facing EV infrastructure.

As EVs become increasingly software-defined and connected to charging networks, apps, firmware, and the energy grid, cyber risks grow with every new connection. Emobi’s JustPlug™ is purpose-built to address these risks, enabling EVs to securely authenticate and initiate charging without relying on cards or apps. Unlike traditional Plug & Charge implementations that require costly vehicle and charger software, firmware, and hardware upgrades, JustPlug™ removes these barriers, extending secure Plug & Charge to approximately 80% of chargers and vehicles that have been unable to support conventional solutions. Through its partnership with OmniTrust, Emobi combines this expanded accessibility with verifiable cryptographic trust, helping Plug & Charge scale securely as the EV ecosystem grows.

JustPlug™ assigns every vehicle a secure digital identity using Hardware Security Modules (HSMs) and digital certificates, ensuring each charging session is encrypted, authenticated, and trusted. When combined with OmniTrust’s cryptographic trust capabilities, this approach supports a more seamless user experience and broader interoperability while strengthening protection across the charging environment. This helps operators, vehicles, and users mitigate risks such as identity theft and unauthorized access.

Together, Emobi and OmniTrust unify authentication, communication, and data exchange into a single secure interoperability layer. This approach allows OEMs, fleets, mobility service providers, and charging network operators to deliver consistent Plug & Charge experiences without duplicating infrastructure or compliance efforts, while maintaining alignment with the ISO 15118 standard.

“Security can no longer be an afterthought in EV charging. It has to be foundational,” said Lin Sun Fa, CEO of Emobi. “JustPlug™ was designed from day one as a cybersecurity-first platform, and our partnership with OmniTrust reinforces that mission by pairing seamless Plug & Charge with enterprise-grade security visibility and protection.”

“The future of EV charging requires trust that can be verified across every vehicle, charger, and network,” said Greg Powell, Vice President, ChargeAuth. “Our work with Emobi helps make that trust foundational to the Plug & Charge experience, enabling the ecosystem to expand securely and at scale.”

As EVs become more integrated with vehicle-to-grid (V2G) systems and other connected energy services, the partnership provides a scalable security foundation. Emobi’s end-to-end encryption, real-time monitoring, and continuous testing work in concert with OmniTrust’s Lifecycle Management capabilities to support secure growth across the evolving EV and energy ecosystem.

Dr. Meyer brings more than thirty years of experience in value-based care, hospital operations, vertical integration, and healthcare quality measurement.

BOSTON, Aug. 5, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Cornerstone Research announced today that Gregg S. Meyer, a professor of medicine at Harvard Medical School and physician at Massachusetts General Hospital, has affiliated with the firm.

An expert in healthcare delivery systems, value-based care, and population health management, Dr. Meyer has extensive experience as a health system executive, practicing physician, and healthcare researcher. He has also served as medical director of the Massachusetts General Physicians Organization (MGPO), one of the largest multispecialty medical groups in the United States.

Healthcare antitrust, merger, and vertical integration expertise

Dr. Meyer’s combination of executive leadership, clinical practice, and health policy research positions him to analyze matters involving hospital and physician-group operations, vertical integration, healthcare mergers, physician incentives, quality measurement, and provider contract negotiations, among others.

Dr. Meyer has held concurrent senior leadership roles at the Boston-based Mass General Brigham health system. As president of the Community Division, he oversaw strategy and operations across multiple hospitals, home care services, and physician groups. His work as executive vice president of value-based care integrated the system’s health insurance organization and population health management programs across hospitals, primary care, and ambulatory and urgent care sites.

“Gregg brings a rare breadth of health system leadership: he has run hospital operations, has managed physician groups, and has worked with provider-sponsored health insurance to build a top-tier value-based care program,” said Dina Older Aguilar, senior vice president and cohead of Cornerstone’s healthcare practice. “He knows firsthand how hospitals, insurers, and physician groups actually work together, and that perspective offers clients real insight into healthcare antitrust and merger disputes.”

Healthcare quality leadership and research

Dr. Meyer’s experience also includes work in the federal government. He directed the Center for Quality Improvement and Patient Safety at the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ), part of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS). In that capacity, he shaped federal quality agendas and coordinated patient-safety research across government agencies.

A widely published researcher, Dr. Meyer has authored or coauthored more than 100 articles, editorials, chapters, and monographs on topics including healthcare quality measurement, pay-for-performance payment models, medical workforce modeling, and the outcomes of medical procedures.

He has served on national and international committees focused on healthcare quality and safety, among them the World Health Organization’s Scientific Peer Review Group on Health Systems Performance Assessment, the Joint Commission on Accreditation of Healthcare, and NASA’s Medical Policy Board.

Dr. Meyer holds an M.D., earned magna cum laude, from Albany Medical College and an S.M. from the Harvard School of Public Health. A Rhodes Scholar, he earned an M.Sc. from the University of Oxford and a B.S., summa cum laude, from Union College.
