Cyber-Attack Detection and Countermeasure for Distributed Electric Springs for Smart Grid Applications

With increasing installations of grid-connected power electronic converters in the distribution network, there is a new trend of using distributed control in a cyber layer to coordinate the operations of these power converters for improving power system stability. However, cyber-attacks remain a threat to such distributed control. This paper...

Detection of cyber attack in smart grid: A Comparative Study

Smart grid steady control relies heavily on the communication infrastructure among sensors, actuators, and control systems, which makes it vulnerable to cyber-attacks. Accurate acquisition of dynamic state information is deemed vital for efficient detection of these cyber-attacks on a smart grid. However, several popular state estimation...

Defense Against Malicious Parameter Identification: System Immersion Coding and Hybrid Multiplicative Watermarking

Cyber-physical systems are vulnerable to malicious attacks, which can lead to severe consequences. Active detection methods have emerged as a promising approach for identifying such attacks. However, existing active detection methods are susceptible to malicious parameter identification attacks, where attackers exploit eavesdropped data to...

VoBERT: Unstable Log Sequence Anomaly Detection: Introducing Vocabulary-Free BERT

With the ever-increasing digitalisation of society and the explosion of internet-enabled devices with the Internet of Things (IoT), keeping services and devices secure is becoming more important. Logs play a critical role in sustaining system reliability. Manual analysis of logs has become increasingly difficult, accelerating the development of...
