Comprehensively Analyzing the Impact of Cyberattacks on Power Grids. (arXiv:2305.09390v1 [cs.CR])
cs.CR updates on arXiv.org arxiv.org
The increasing digitalization of power grids and especially the shift towards
IP-based communication drastically increase the susceptibility to cyberattacks,
potentially leading to blackouts and physical damage. Understanding the
involved risks, the interplay of communication and physical assets, and the
effects of cyberattacks are paramount for the uninterrupted operation of this
critical infrastructure. However, as the impact of cyberattacks cannot be
researched in real-world power grids, current efforts tend to focus on
analyzing isolated aspects at small scales, often covering only …
