Risk assessment of a solar attack according to ISO 31000 standard

Abstract

Energy supply remains the greatest challenge for many of Eastern European countries and their economy. In post-soviet and ex-Yugoslavian countries, till today there exists a system where some of the power plants rely on high voltage (HV) and medium voltage (MV) power grids in the process of distribution of electric energy (EE) to final consumers. This makes them vulnerable to solar storms due to HV power transformers which are especially sensitive to geomagnetic induced current (GIC). The acquisition of electrical power infrastructure could put the electrical infrastructure out of service from a couple of months to a year or more. Loss of income, for ordinary families, is a primary hazard of a long power outage. Business continuity of industry and other critical infrastructures (CI) is important in this scenario, but it is a significant challenge for small businesses and enterprises as well. This paper introduces ISO 31000 standard to such scenarios with the primary goal of achieving resilience of companies against such disaster as a new method of vial response to avoid scope of similar hazards.

Mapping the landscape: a bibliometric analysis of ISO 31000

“…In today's interconnected global economy, supply chains are becoming increasingly complex and vulnerable to various risks (Lavrnić et al. , 2021).…”

“…In today's interconnected global economy, supply chains are becoming increasingly complex and vulnerable to various risks (Lavrni c et al, 2021). Research can explore how ISO 31000 can be leveraged to manage risks in global supply chains, particularly those arising from dependencies on suppliers and partners across international borders.…”

Trends in LPWAN Technologies for LEO Satellite Constellations in the NewSpace Context

“…This can result in areas with no or intermittent coverage, affecting the connectivity and availability of IoT devices[67].•Interference: Satellite communications can be impacted by natural and artificial electromagnetic interferences. Solar storms can influence the quality of satellite communications[68]. Meanwhile, signals from other satellites[69] or terrestrial sources[13] can generate interferences that affect the reception and transmission of data, leading to a degraded signal quality and increased error rates.•Security and privacy: Satellite signals can be captured by any receiver on Earth, raising concerns about the confidentiality and integrity of the transmitted information.Implementing robust security measures in satellite IoT communications in LEOs is essential, especially with the increasing risk of cyber-attacks due to the broader adoption of satellite technology[9].…”
