Abstract:
Given the recent increase in frequency, sophistication and success of cyber-attacks against critical IT infrastructure, such as the Smart Grid, the urgent need for advanced cybersecurity solutions is clearly evident. This paper presents a security information analytics (SIA) framework, using various data analytics methods to detect anomalies in metered data, that may indicate attacks. The implementation of the SIA tool has been applied to a live micro-grid test-bed for the modeling of normal behaviour and for performance analysis. Furthermore, the framework is scalable, allowing additional analysis tools and resilient control solutions to be incorporated, further enhancing the reliability of the system.
