“…The schemes relying on per-packet signature and verification introduce substantial computation cost. In this direction, Li and Cao [41] have introduced a one-time signature scheme for multicast authentication in the SG, which reduces the storage cost by eight-times and lowers signature size by 40% as compared to HORS by Reyzin and Reyzin [42], and prevents message forgery attacks. After that, a batch verification and signature authorization protocol that generates low overhead and provides fault tolerance was proposed by Li et al [43].…”

Abstract:The smart grid (SG) is a promising platform for providing more reliable, efficient, and cost effective electricity to the consumers in a secure manner. Numerous initiatives across the globe are taken by both industry and academia in order to compile various security issues in the smart grid network. Unfortunately, there is no impactful survey paper available in the literature on authentications in the smart grid network. Therefore, this paper addresses the required objectives of an authentication protocol in the smart grid network along with the focus on mutual authentication, access control, and secure integration among different SG components. We review the existing authentication protocols, and analyze mutual authentication, privacy, trust, integrity, and confidentiality of communicating information in the smart grid network. We review authentications between the communicated entities in the smart grid, such as smart appliance, smart meter, energy provider, control center (CC), and home/building/neighborhood area network gateways (GW). We also review the existing authentication schemes for the vehicle-to-grid (V2G) communication network along with various available secure integration and access control schemes. We also discuss the importance of the mutual authentication among SG entities while providing confidentiality and privacy preservation, seamless integration, and required access control with lower overhead, cost, and delay. This paper will help to provide a better understanding of current authentication, authorization, and secure integration issues in the smart grid network and directions to create interest among researchers to further explore these promising areas.

“…A watermark is a recognizable image or pattern in paper that appears as various shades of lightness/darkness when viewed by transmitted light (or when viewed by reflected light, atop a dark background), caused by thickness or density variations in the paper [16]. Watermarks are commonly used as security features of banknotes, passports, postage stamps, and other documents to prevent counterfeiting.…”

“…In [2], pattern identification based approach using probabilistic neural network is proposed to detect the fake malicious measurements online. In order to enhance precision and reduce process latency, similar approach such as evidence theory [15], support vector machine [16], and orthogonal least square based radial basis function neural network [17] has been investigated. However, these methods could not satisfy both latency and generalization requirement since state space complexity increases substantially for substations with complex diagram.…”

Abstract:The paper proposes the use of digital watermark based authentication for intrusion detection in IEC 61850-automated substations. The watermark can be embedded into the Least Significant Bits of the measurements without visible deterioration in precision. When Intelligent Electronics Devices gets measurements, the watermark in the measurement can be retrieved to determine whether it has been attacked and detect malicious intrusion. The proposed approach is appropriate for the time critical and resource constrained applications in substation automation system for its simplicity. Numerical simulation shows that the process latency and error incurred by watermarking is acceptable and will not impact performance of protective function in IEC 61850 automated substations.

“…According to Qinghua Li and Guohong Cao [2] multicast authentication has been envisioned to be useful in many Smart Grid applications such as demand-response, wide area protection, in-substation protection, and various operation and control. Since the multicast messages are related to critical control, authentication is necessary to prevent message forgery attacks.…”

Grid computing, as a distributed computing model, stands for the new kind of systems that pools heterogeneous computational resources, such as computers, storage space, sensors, application software, and experiment data. When a user wants to request some computing and data resources, the grid can seamlessly, transparently and dynamically supply them. The security issue has become an important concern of grid computing. To prevent the grid resources from being illegally visited, the strong mutual authentication is needed for user and server. In recent periods, many password-based user authentication schemes are proposed for solving the authentication issue. However, most of them are not ideal for grid computing, since they do not provide the strong mutual authentication. It is proposed to introduce an efficient user Cyclic Shift Transposition Algorithm (CSTA) scheme and a model for secure routing mechanism of sharing messages between source and destination in grid computing by adding information about sender and preserves the message content, which prevents not only known attacks but also maintains the integrity of data. This efficient method is implemented over text data. This model dynamically reorders the frequency of the input symbols according to the coupled cyclic shift system.All text is coded during initialization. The output from the engine is in the form of variable size words and the individual bit output corresponding to the inserted symbols cannot be determined thus highly confidential.
