Integration of Information and Communications Technology (ICT) into the distribution system
makes today's power grid more remotely monitored and controlled than it has been. The fast …

As electric power became an essential part of daily life, resiliency and reliability of operation
became important. A distribution management system (DMS) enables real-time monitoring …

A study on countermeasures against coordinated cyber-attacks (CCA) towards power grid
systems has been carried out. A coordinated cyber-attack is a cyber-based attack where …

The physical system of a power distribution grid relies on a cyber system for monitoring,
control, and operation. As a result, the reliable operation of power distribution grids is highly …

Cyber-attacks on power system assets are increasingly causing disruption of operations for
modern-day utilities. Intrusion detection systems are essential for the detection and …

This paper develops a novel intrusion detection system for power distribution systems that
utilizes a cyber-physical real-time reference model to accurately replicate the complex …

The increased interconnectivity and complexity of supervisory control and data acquisition
(SCADA) systems in power system networks has exposed the systems to a multitude of …

Cyber intrusions to substations of a power grid are a source of vulnerability since most
substations are unmanned and with limited protection of the physical security. In the worst …

Recently, the number of cyber threats on power systems has increased at an unprecedented
rate. For instance, the widespread blackout in Ukrainian power grid on December 2015 was …

In this paper, we describe our novel use of network intrusion detection systems (NIDS) for
protecting automated distribution systems (ADS) against certain types of cyber attacks in a …
