Cyber-physical attacks impose a significant threat to the smart grid, as the cyber attack makes it difficult to identify the actual damage caused by the physical attack. To defend against such attacks, various inference-based solutions have been proposed to estimate the states of grid elements (e.g., transmission lines) from measurements outside the attacked area, out of which a few have provided theoretical conditions for guaranteed accuracy. However, these conditions are usually based on the ground truth states and thus not verifiable in practice. To solve this problem, we develop (i) verifiable conditions that can be tested based on only observable information, and (ii) efficient algorithms for verifying the states of links (i.e., transmission lines) within the attacked area based on these conditions. Our numerical evaluations based on the Polish power grid and IEEE 300-bus system demonstrate that the proposed algorithms are highly successful in verifying the states of truly failed links, and can thus greatly help in prioritizing repairs during the recovery process.

In this paper, we investigate the feasibility and physical consequences of cyber attacks against energy management systems (EMS). Within this framework, we have designed a complete simulation platform to emulate realistic EMS operations: it includes
state estimation (SE), real-time contingency analysis (RTCA), and security constrained economic dispatch (SCED). This software platform allowed us to achieve two main objectives: 1) to study the cyber vulnerabilities of an EMS and understand their consequences on the system, and 2) to formulate and implement countermeasures against cyber-attacks exploiting these vulnerabilities. Our results show that the false data injection attacks against state estimation described in the literature do not easily cause base-case overflows because of the conservatism introduced by RTCA. For a successful attack, a more sophisticated model that includes all of the EMS blocks is needed; even in this scenario, only post-contingency violations can be achieved. Nonetheless, we propose several countermeasures that can detect changes due to cyber-attacks and limit their impact on the system.
Modern electric power grid, known as the Smart Grid, has fast transformed the isolated and centrally controlled power system to a fast and massively connected cyber-physical system that benefits from the revolutions happening in the communications an
d the fast adoption of Internet of Things devices. While the synergy of a vast number of cyber-physical entities has allowed the Smart Grid to be much more effective and sustainable in meeting the growing global energy challenges, it has also brought with it a large number of vulnerabilities resulting in breaches of data integrity, confidentiality and availability. False data injection (FDI) appears to be among the most critical cyberattacks and has been a focal point interest for both research and industry. To this end, this paper presents a comprehensive review in the recent advances of the defence countermeasures of the FDI attacks in the Smart Grid infrastructure. Relevant existing literature are evaluated and compared in terms of their theoretical and practical significance to the Smart Grid cybersecurity. In conclusion, a range of technical limitations of existing false data attack detection researches are identified, and a number of future research directions are recommended.
False Data Injection (FDI) attacks are a common form of Cyber-attack targetting smart grids. Detection of stealthy FDI attacks is impossible by the current bad data detection systems. Machine learning is one of the alternative methods proposed to det
ect FDI attacks. This paper analyzes three various supervised learning techniques, each to be used with three different feature selection (FS) techniques. These methods are tested on the IEEE 14-bus, 57-bus, and 118-bus systems for evaluation of versatility. Accuracy of the classification is used as the main evaluation method for each detection technique. Simulation study clarify the supervised learning combined with heuristic FS methods result in an improved performance of the classification algorithms for FDI attack detection.
The cybersecurity of smart grids has become one of key problems in developing reliable modern power and energy systems. This paper introduces a non-stationary adversarial cost with a variation constraint for smart grids and enables us to investigate
the problem of optimal smart grid protection against cyber attacks in a relatively practical scenario. In particular, a Bayesian multi-node bandit (MNB) model with adversarial costs is constructed and a new regret function is defined for this model. An algorithm called Thompson-Hedge algorithm is presented to solve the problem and the superior performance of the proposed algorithm is proven in terms of the convergence rate of the regret function. The applicability of the algorithm to real smart grid scenarios is verified and the performance of the algorithm is also demonstrated by numerical examples.
We introduce the problem of learning-based attacks in a simple abstraction of cyber-physical systems---the case of a discrete-time, linear, time-invariant plant that may be subject to an attack that overrides the sensor readings and the controller ac
tions. The attacker attempts to learn the dynamics of the plant and subsequently override the controllers actuation signal, to destroy the plant without being detected. The attacker can feed fictitious sensor readings to the controller using its estimate of the plant dynamics and mimic the legitimate plant operation. The controller, on the other hand, is constantly on the lookout for an attack; once the controller detects an attack, it immediately shuts the plant off. In the case of scalar plants, we derive an upper bound on the attackers deception probability for any measurable control policy when the attacker uses an arbitrary learning algorithm to estimate the system dynamics. We then derive lower bounds for the attackers deception probability for both scalar and vector plants by assuming a specific authentication test that inspects the empirical variance of the system disturbance. We also show how the controller can improve the security of the system by superimposing a carefully crafted privacy-enhancing signal on top of the nominal control policy. Finally, for nonlinear scalar dynamics that belong to the Reproducing Kernel Hilbert Space (RKHS), we investigate the performance of attacks based on nonlinear Gaussian-processes (GP) learning algorithms.
