The Potential of Smart Grid Security & SCADA security

As Governments and utilities around the world continue to work on the deployment of the Smart Grid initiative, cyber security issues around such an infrastructure are now top priority in relation to national security and investment.

Smart Grid operators must guard against international security threats from hackers, cyber terrorists, and rogue states, etc. SCADA systems are used to control and monitor physical processes. The security challenges posed by power system operations are different from those facing most other industries. Connecting and SCADA to a public network can bring a lot of security issues. SCADA security Project is an initiative to create an open SCADA security community. The security of any future Smart Grid is dependent on successfully addressing the cyber security issues associated with the nation’s current power grid.
