Schneider Electric has been involved in several publicly reported cybersecurity incidents that highlight aspects of its operational environment.

In May 2023, the company was affected by a mass‑exploitation of a zero‑day vulnerability in the MOVEit file‑transfer application, attributed to the Clop ransomware group. Earlier, in August 2018, malware was discovered on USB drives shipped with its Conext ComBox and Conext Battery Monitor solar energy monitoring products, stemming from a third‑party supplier.
