Abstract
This paper aims to identify and clarify the cyber security risks and their interaction with the power system in Smart Grid. The SCADA system and other communication networks interact with the power system on a real time basis, so it is important to understand the interaction between two layers to protect the power system from potential cyber threats. This paper has shown the risks of the open architecture SCADA in a quantitative method and proposed effective security measures through case studies.
