“…In order to verify the proposed IDS approaches in this paper, an "attacker" laptop was directly connected to the station bus and the process bus to launch a number of cyberattacks in this test-bed, such as malformed packet attack, DoS attack, address resolution protocol (ARP) spoofing attack, and man-in-the-middle (MITM) attack, as depicted in the authors' previous work [23]. The attack could equally have originated from a malware infected host on the network.…”

“…Much more in-depth insight into integrating physical knowledge, protocol specifications and logical behaviors with SCADA-specific IDPS is urgently required for cybersecurity of IEC 61850 based control systems. In response to the challenge represented by cyber vulnerabilities in IEC 61850 smart substations [23], this paper proposes a novel IDS. The comprehensive SCADA-specific IDS is tailored for cybersecurity of IEC 61850 based SCADA networks.…”

Abstract--Emerging cybersecurity vulnerabilities in supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA) systems are becoming urgent engineering issues for modern substations. This paper proposes a novel intrusion detection system (IDS) tailored for cybersecurity of IEC 61850 based substations. The proposed IDS integrates physical knowledge, protocol specifications and logical behaviors to provide a comprehensive and effective solution that is able to mitigate various cyberattacks. The proposed approach comprises access control detection, protocol whitelisting, model-based detection, and multi-parameter based detection. This SCADA-specific IDS is implemented and validated using a comprehensive and realistic cyber-physical test-bed and data from a real 500kV smart substation.

“…Xiong Qi et al implemented an OPC-MFuzzer tool for OPC-based vulnerability exploiting based on the work of Ting Wang et al [10]. Devarajan designed the fuzzing framework for ICCP, MODBUS and DNP protocols [11]. Compared with the above traditional fuzzing tools, Sulley, the new generation of fuzzing framework, is much easier to use, in that it not only tests software in a physical machine, but also tests software in a virtual machine [8].…”

Abstract. In this paper, we proposed an effective vulnerability mining system for IEC61850 protocol in the Smart Grid. First of all, we introduce the basic structures and features of IEC61850 protocol. Next, we summarize the possible vulnerabilities of it. Finally a fuzzing tester named IECFuzzer is designed and implemented using the technique of fuzzing. A lot of simulation results show that IECFuzzer can not only be used to exploit the potential denial-of-service vulnerabilities of IEC61850 protocol, but also to verify the robustness of PLC devices using IEC61850 protocol.
